Planet Jupiter is again in the spotlight after a video was released that reveals what an aurora visible at the pole of the cosmic body looks like, and how similar they are to those on Earth. You can see above what scientists are telling us about these phenomena that are also happening on Earth, but which until now could not be observed so clearly on the planet Jupiter, the Juno spacecraft changing everything.
Planet Jupiter has been explored by the Juno spacecraft for some time, but so far no video of this kind has appeared to show us the differences between an aurora on Earth and one there. Until the Juno spacecraft was sent there, only part of an aurora that was taking place on the planet Jupiter could be seen from Earth, but it changed everything, and it helps us to see an event of this kind entirely on Earth.

Planet Jupiter it has finally registered these phenomena in its “dark” part because on Earth the whole planet cannot be observed, but only the part that is directed towards us. This has greatly limited what scientists have been able to see about the planet Jupiter before the Juno spacecraft arrived there, NASA has been sending it for some time, and now they are using it to explore the months they have. is in orbit.
“A study by researchers at the Laboratory of Planetary and Atmospheric Physics at the University of Liège shows for the first time global views of a storm at dawn, a spectacular auroral phenomenon that takes place on Jupiter.”
Planet Jupiter it has many surprises that earthlings have not been able to notice yet, but there are many other secrets that have been revealed to everyone for some time. However, the planet Jupiter remains in the attention of the whole world because the Juno spacecraft continues to send a variety of very important information about what is happening in its atmosphere, but also in its orbit, and there is much we can learn further.
Planet Jupiter will be abandoned by the Juno spacecraft in the coming years, and for now there is no other mission to replace it, although we still do not know what lies beneath its atmosphere.
