Juno Spots, new circulating cyclone at the Jupiter South Pole: NASA’s Juno spacecraft spied on the new Jovian cyclone on November 3, 2019, during the 23rd Scientific Pass of the gas giant.
Juno was launched on August 5, 2011, which included an ambitious mission to see Jupiter under dense clouds. On July 4, 2016, the probe finally reached the orbit of the giant planet.
Shortly after their arrival, Juno’s cameras discovered huge cyclones surrounding the Jovian poles: nine in the north and six in the south.
With each flyby, the data reinforced the idea that there were five wind shocks that revolved around the central pole at the south pole in a pentagonal pattern and that the system seemed stable.
None of the six storms indicated permission to join other cyclones. Data from the Juno Jovian infrared aerial mapping instrument (JIRAM) indicates that we suffer from a cyclone of a cyclone around a hexagonal design in the center.
A team member of Dr. Alessaro Mura, who is a researcher at the National Institute of Astrophysics of Rome. This new addition is smaller in stature than its six more established cyclone brothers.
It is about the size of Texas. Perhaps JIRAM data from future fights will increase cyclones in the same way as its neighbors. New data from the JIRAM instrument indicates an average cyclonic wind speed of 362 km (225 mph).
And comparable to the speeds found in its six most established polar allies. This infrared image, captured by Juno’s JIRAM instrument on November 4, 2019.
And shows a new small cyclone (to the right of the image) grouped around the south pole of Jupiter. JunoCam of the investigation obtained a visible light image of the new cyclone.
It also sheds light on the atmospheric processes of Earth’s cyclones. These cyclones are new climatic events that have not been seen or predicted before.
We have begun to explain this through observations and computer simulations. Juno’s excess of the future will help us understand how cyclones evolve over time.
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest planet in the solar system: It is a gas giant with one thousandth of the mass of the Sun, but two and a half times the mass of all the other planets in our solar system.
Jupiter is classified as a gas giant with Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Together, these four planets are sometimes called Jovian or outer planets. The planet was known to ancient astronomers and was associated with the mythology and religious beliefs of many cultures.
The Romans called the planet by the Roman god Jupiter. When viewed from Earth, Jupiter can reach apparent magnitudes of -2.94, which makes it the third brightest object on average in the night sky after the Moon and Venus.
(Mars can briefly match Jupiter’s brightness at certain points in its orbit.) Jupiter is mainly composed of hydrogen with a quarter mass of helium; It can also have a rocky core of heavy elements.
Due to its rapid rotation, Jupiter’s shape is an oblique spheroid (it is near a slight but noticeable bump around the equator). The outside atmosphere can be seen in multiple bands at different latitudes, resulting in turbulence.
And storms within their interaction limits. An important result is the Great Red Spot. A giant storm known to have been seen for the first time by a telescope since at least the 17th century.
Around the planet there is a misty planetary ring system and a powerful magnetosphere. There are also at least 66 moons, including four large moons called Galilean moons.
Which Galileo Galilei first discovered in 1610. Ganymede, the largest of these moons, has a larger diameter than Mercury. Jupiter has been discovered by the robotic spacecraft several times.
And especially during the first overflight missions of Pioneer and Vyzer and later by the Galileo orbiter.
The most recent probe that traveled to Jupiter was the New Horizons spacecraft bound for Pluto in late February 2007. This probe used gravity to increase its speed from Jupiter.
Future exploration objectives in the Jovian system include possible liquid oceans covered with ice on the Europa Moon. Jupiter has been known since ancient times and is visible to the naked eye in the night sky.
In 1610, Galileo Galilei discovered the four largest moons of Jupiter using telescopes, the first observation of moons
