New view: JunoCam's polar imagery
Juno's red-green-blue-methane (890nm) filtered 'JunoCam' instrument captured this remarkable view of Jupiter's south pole. Taken from an altitude of 52,000 km, it shows giant cyclones measuring up to 1000 km in diameter. Multiple images taken with the JunoCam instrument on three separate orbits were combined to show all areas in daylight, enhanced color, and stereographic projection.
