       Discover the cosmos! Each day a different image or photograph of our   
         fascinating universe is featured, along with a brief explanation   
                       written by a professional astronomer.

         A close-up image is shown of the planet Jupiter. Many clouds are   
      visible including clouds colored blue near the bottom, on the left, and   
       white oval clouds on the upper right. Please see the explanation for   
                            more detailed information.

      Explanation: 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.
