This page showcases our resources for those interested in learning more about Jupiter.

A new study finally reveals higher-frequency X-rays and explains why they eluded another mission 30 years ago.

NASA's Juno spacecraft captured sounds of Jupiter's moon Ganymede during a June 7, 2021, close flyby.

During its 36th low pass over Jupiter, NASA’s Juno spacecraft captured this view of striking Jupiter's cloud bands and swirls.

New Juno findings provide a fuller picture of Jupiter’s colorful atmospheric features, and offer clues about what's below the clouds.

NASA’s Chief Scientist Jim Green has announced that he will retire in early 2022 after more than 40 years of service at NASA.

Juno used its infrared instrument during recent flybys of Ganymede to create this map a decade after Juno’s launch.

This week in 2011, the Juno mission to Jupiter launched from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center aboard an Atlas V-551 rocket.

The probe flew closer to Jupiter's largest moon, Ganymede, than any other spacecraft in more than two decades.

A puzzler about the gas giant’s intense northern and southern lights has been deciphered.

The spacecraft flew closer to Jupiter’s largest moon than any other in more than two decades, offering dramatic glimpses of the icy orb.

The first of the gas-giant orbiter’s back-to-back flybys will provide a close encounter with the massive moon after over 20 years.

On April 15, 2021, NASA’s Juno spacecraft captured the intriguing evolution of “Clyde’s Spot.”

This image from NASA’s Juno mission captures the northern hemisphere of Jupiter around the region known as Jet N7.

The gas-giant orbiter is illuminating the provenance of Jovian polar light shows.

Zodiacal light is sunlight reflected toward Earth by dust orbiting the Sun. Juno scientists now think Mars may be the source of the dust.

This view of Jupiter’s turbulent atmosphere from NASA’s Juno spacecraft includes several of the planet’s southern jet streams.

Images of Jupiter’s hot spots are key to understanding the role of storms and waves in Jupiter’s atmosphere.

The spacecraft will become an explorer of the full Jovian system – Jupiter and its rings and moons.

The Juno and InSight missions have each increased our understanding of our solar system and have spurred new questions.

Some of Juno's latest findings touch on "hot spots" in the planet's atmosphere.

New results from NASA's Juno mission suggest that either "sprites" or "elves" could be dancing in the upper atmosphere of Jupiter.

Cyclones at the north pole of Jupiter appear as swirls of striking colors in this extreme false color rendering of an image from NASA’s Juno mission.

New results from the Juno mission suggest Jupiter is home to what's called "shallow lightning."

Infrared images from NASA's Juno spacecraft are providing the first glimpse of Ganymede's icy north pole.
