Happening now: I’m passing low over the cloud tops of Jupiter, as simulated here by the : NASA_Eyes visualization. Current speed relative to Jupiter: 128,000 mph (206,000 kilometers per hour) and rising. Get the latest mission news at missionjuno.swri.edu.

Remembering on this #EarthDay the last time I flew by our home planet, and how unique and beautiful it looks from afar. #EarthDayAtHome

I’ve teamed up with Hubble and the ground-based Gemini Observatory observatory to probe the powerful storms on Jupiter, including the "radio light show" produced by lightning flashes up to three times more energetic than Earth's largest bolts. See more: go.nasa.gov/3bf0xXA

Racing stripes: Jupiter is huge, but makes a full rotation in just 10 hours. This creates powerful jet streams that divide its clouds into distinctive bands, as seen in this striking JunoCam image processed by citizen scientist David Marriott. Details: missionjuno.swri.edu/news/jupiters-…

Amateur astronomer Clyde Foster spied a new feature in Jupiter’s clouds…I captured a detailed look at “Clyde’s Spot” when I zoomed by just two days later. #CitizenScience for the win. See more: missionjuno.swri.edu/junocam/think-… JunoCam image processing by Kevin M. Gill

Jupiter’s moon Ganymede is larger than the planet Mercury, the only moon in the solar system known to have its own magnetic field. I captured infrared images that provide the first glimpse of Ganymede's icy north pole. Learn more: missionjuno.swri.edu/news/nasa-juno…

In the next few hours I’ll be making my 28th close pass by Jupiter (as simulated here by NASA Solar System’s Eyes on the Solar System: eyes.nasa.gov). Learn more about my mission at missionjuno.swri.edu.

The swirling atmosphere we see on Jupiter is home to violent storms. NASA Solar System’s Juno mission discovered new evidence pointing to shallow lightning & slushy ammonia-rich hailstones known as mushballs. #ScienceInSeconds on Jupiter's exotic weather: go.nasa.gov/2ProDpx

Nine years ago today, I began my journey to Jupiter. See these interviews with members of my team to hear more about what we have learned: missionjuno.swri.edu/media-gallery/…

Nine years in space. 28 orbits of Jupiter. Textbooks rewritten. And I’m just getting started. This account is combining with NASA Solar System – join me there for continuing updates from my mission to Jupiter, along with other expeditions to the worlds of our solar system.
