"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." http://www.sci-techuniverse.com/2017...just-sent.html Fascinating images. Enjoy! :-) -- David B. |

Enjoy! :-) The swirling gasses look like some of what Bohman saw when he went through the Stargate in 2001 Dave: There goes the happy moron. He doesn't give a damn. Gee I wish I was a moron. My God, maybe I am |

Except that the colors are made-up, all colours are made up, it;s what our eye does, colours don;t really exist. But I do no what you mean the colours are used to sperate things that are going on making them easier to see. A bit less crude than a highlight pen :-) so what you're really seeing is sci-fi fantasy. Not really it's being able to see more wavelenghs or more information than the human eye could actually see. Itls a bit likke claiming that bats don;t fly at night because you can;t see them in the dark, in ordee to see how they fly yuo could use infra-red light with an infra-red sensative camera, you'd see bats flying but not their correct colour. It;s a bit like teh link below we can;t see carbon dioxide in the air but colouring it makes it easier to see and understand, http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-41604760 So as long as you appreciate this there shouldn't be a problem. Except that is not any sort of a photographic image. Its a computer generated diagram based on observational data. On the bright side, NASA images are public domain by law. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

My choice of wavelengths look better than Nasa's undoctored images. I look forward to the Ladies of Neptune series. |

https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/juno/images/index.html. Ron C: Very much better experience! Thanks for posting that link. You're welcome. I have sort of a thing, a fixation perhaps, on getting things directly from the source.
