Roses on Jupiter

Dec. 11, 2020
This image was captured by the JunoCam imager aboard NASA's Juno spacecraft on February 17, 2020, during Juno's 25th perijove pass.

Images from the Juno spacecraft's visible-light amera JunoCam are posted after every close pass for the public to enjoy and process themselves. JunoCam's images of Jupiter inspire art and science. An image taken by JunoCam during Juno's 25th perijove pass on February 17, 2020, inspired citizen scientist Rita Najm to enhance its color and contrast and to give it the impression of a painting that's ready to be framed.

The original JunoCam image used to produce this view was taken from from an altitude of about 7,900 miles (12,700 kilometers) above Jupiter's cloud tops.

JunoCam's raw images are available for the public to peruse and process into image products at https://missionjuno.swri.edu/junocam/processing.
