木星比我們想象的還要陌生美國宇航局的 "朱諾 "號宇宙飛船在木星的高橢圓軌道上飛行時,已經完成了 70 多次掠過木星的動作。圖為 2017 年,我們從下方看到的木星,令人驚訝的是,覆蓋木星大部分的水平帶消失了,變成了漩渦和複雜的圖案。 在靠近赤道的地方,可以看到一條白色的橢圓形雲線。 朱諾號令人印象深刻的研究結果表明,木星的天氣現象可以延伸到雲頂以下很深的地方,木星中心的核心出乎意料地大而且軟,木星的磁場隨位置變化很大。 雖然 "朱諾 "號計劃繼續圍繞木星執行到 2025 年,但總有一天,這個機器人太空飛行器會被操縱著墜入這顆巨大的行星。 拼圖遊戲每日天文拼圖
原文:Jupiter is stranger than we knew. NASA's Juno spacecraft has now completed over 70 swoops past Jupiter as it moves around its highly elliptical orbit. Pictured from 2017, Jupiter is seen from below where, surprisingly, the horizontal bands that cover most of the planet disappear into swirls and complex patterns. A line of white oval clouds is visible nearer to the equator. Impressive results from Juno show that Jupiter's weather phenomena can extend deep below its cloud tops, that Jupiter's center has a core that is unexpectedly large and soft, and that Jupiter's magnetic field varies greatly with location. Although Juno is scheduled to keep orbiting Jupiter further into 2025, at some time the robotic spacecraft will be maneuvered to plunge into the giant planet.
