Dramatic Jupiter! Atmospheric features in Jupiter’s northern hemisphere are captured in this Feb. 12 view from our Juno spacecraft, giving us a new perspective that shows swirling clouds surrounding a circular feature within a jet stream region. This color-enhanced image was taken as the spacecraft performed its 18th close flyby of the gas giant planet. At the time, Juno was about 8,000 miles (13,000 kilometers) from the planet's cloud tops Image Credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/MSSS/Kevin M.
