Exotic Marble

Dec. 12, 2019
NASA's Juno spacecraft captured this image of Jupiter and the enhanced color evokes an exotic marble.

"A mind of limits, a camera of thoughts" is the name of this contribution from citizen scientist Prateek Sarpal. Jupiter inspires artists and scientists with its beauty. In this image, south is up, and the enhanced color evokes an exotic marble and childhood joy.

The original image was captured by JunoCam, the camera on NASA's Juno mission in orbit around Jupiter. This image was taken on Juno's 22nd close pass by Jupiter on Sept. 12, 2019.

JunoCam's raw images are available for the public to peruse and process into image products at
