Lick and Leuschner Observatories

Lick and Leuschner Observatories

University of California/Berkeley scientists will conduct comprehensive observations of Jupiter and its surrounding environment at these two observatories. They will observe the boundaries and flows in the outer Jovian magnetosphere, detail potentially radical changes, and watch recovery of the Io plasma torus. They also will observe spectra of large-impact fireballs, using Jupiter's moons as "mirrors" to reflect the light of the fireballs.
