Juno was originally set for a fiery death in Jupiter's atmosphere in 2021, but NASA extended its mission through September 2025 so it could observe Ganymede, Io, and Europa more closely.
The spacecraft, Juno, has been circling Jupiter since 2016. Since then, it has orbited the planet to learn more about the gas giant and its moons, NASA said.
Plasma waves are a critical element to understanding the many mysteries of the gas giant’s turbulent, magnetically powerful atmosphere, the researchers say.

During its 51st orbit of Jupiter on Tuesday, May 16, NASA's Juno spacecraft imaged Io, the most volcanic body in the solar system from just 22,060 miles—the closest yet.
Jupiter's moon Io is one of Jupiter’s several moons. This image was taken on December 30, 2023 during the Juno spacecraft’s flyby of this volcanic Jupiterian moon.
Juno has shown that the volcano is still going, spewing a plume of gas and dust high above the night side of Io. Fresh from Jupiter, we have new views of its active moon Io, thanks to the # ...
