"Traveling above Jupiter at more than 130,000 miles per hour, NASA's
$1 billion Juno probe took its ninth set of stunning flyby images on
October 24. But the sun slipped between the giant planet and Earth for
more than a week, blocking the spacecraft from beaming home its
precious bounty of data.

Now that the conjunction is over, however, new raw image data from
Juno's ninth perijove — as the spacecraft's high-speed flybys are
called — has poured in. Researchers posted it all online on Tuesday,
and a community of amateurs and professionals has been busily
processing the data to yield colorful and stunning new pictures of
Jupiter."

Fascinating images. Enjoy! :-)

Indeed.

But Chevrons? Looks like an ordinary Von Karman vortex street to me.
