PIA24293: Roses on Jupiter


Roses on Jupiter

Caption:

Images from the Juno spacecraft's visible-light amera JunoCam are posted after every close pass for the public to enjoy and process themselves. JunoCam's images of Jupiter inspire art and science. An image taken by JunoCam during Juno's 25th perijove pass on February 17, 2020, inspired citizen scientist Rita Najm to enhance its color and contrast and to give it the impression of a painting that's ready to be framed.

The original JunoCam image used to produce this view was taken from from an altitude of about 7,900 miles (12,700 kilometers) above Jupiter's cloud tops.
