Perijove 16: Passing Jupiter
NASA's Juno spacecraft makes another close pass by Jupiter in this time-lapse video. This is Perijove 16, the sixteenth time Juno has skimmed Jupiter's cloud tops since 2016. Each pass offers a slightly different perspective, revealing new details in the planet's dynamic atmosphere. The video is composed of 21 images from the JunoCam instrument, sped up 125 times.
