NASA launched into space on August 6, 2011 and was tasked with exploring Jupiter. Juno spacecraftIt entered orbit of the giant planet in 2016. Juno continues to send high-quality photos from Jupiter ever since. The last photo Juno sent the other day is massive storms on Jupiter revealed.
43. Juno completed its close-to-Jupiter flyby mission. Impressive images from the North Pole caught. Those images shared by NASA were home to details that offered important information about Jupiter’s atmosphere. The new Jupiter images were as follows:
Here is Jupiter’s North Pole:
Each vortex-like structure in the photo we see above was the same storm that was taking place in the planet’s atmosphere. When we look at the photo, these storms, whose size we cannot predict exactly, each actually rose up to 50 kilometers high, covering hundreds of kilometers.

Understanding how these storms form, according to the statement shared by NASA, will help create the atmosphere of Jupiter and other atmospheric features of the planet. fluid dynamics and cloud chemistry will help us understand. The colors and sizes of Jupiter storms are among the areas that the scientific world continues to study intensively.
