      Explanation: Take this simulated plunge and dive into the upper   
      atmosphere of Jupiter, the Solar System's ruling gas giant. The awesome   
      animation is based on image data from JunoCam, and the microwave   
      radiometer on board the Jupiter-orbiting Juno spacecraft. Your view   
      will start about 3,000 kilometers above the southern Jovian cloud tops,   
      and you can track your progress on the display at the left. As altitude   
      decreases, temperature increases while you dive deeper at the location   
      of Jupiter's famous Great Red Spot. In fact, Juno data indicates the   
      Great Red Spot, the Solar System's largest storm system, penetrates   
      some 300 kilometers into the giant planet's atmosphere. For comparison,   
      the deepest point for planet Earth's oceans is just under 11 kilometers   
      down. Don't worry though, you'll fly back out again.
