Jupiter Exploration Missions

Jupiter Exploration missions-NASA presents the most advanced of the probe to study the planet Jupiter on Friday (August 5). But the new mission is called Juno, is standing on the Giants, the leaders said the places — in particular, the eight robotic spacecraft that the gas giant planet previously visited.

“Each of the missions we are providing unique information and very important,” said the principal investigator of the Juno , Scott Bolton, Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio, during a press conference Wednesday (August 3). “Some previous missions were recognition, so we could figure out what are the right questions, and they essentially led it to make the questions that we have with Juno. ”

Jupiter Exploration Missions (NASA Juno mission) will study how Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system was formed and the dynamic world we see today.

The main scientific objectives of the Juno mission is to significantly improve our understanding of the formation, development and structure of Jupiter. Hidden in a rack-dense canopy of clouds, protects the Jupiter, the archetypal “Giant Planet”, the secrets of the fundamental processes that underlie the beginning of the formation of our solar system. ” Current theories about the origin and evolution of our solar system is currently blocked. Juno will provide answers to the questions of science critical on Jupiter, as well as important information that makes it possible to improve considerably the current theories on the formation of the solar system.

Juno will carry several instruments, including the Jovian Infra-Red Auroral Mapper (JIRAM), which will probe the planet’s atmosphere and the auroras generated by interaction between the atmosphere and intense radiation trapped by the giant planet’s magnetic field. The detailed structure of Jupiter’s atmosphere is key to understanding the processes that formed both our solar system, and planets around other stars.
