Recent findings have challenged the traditional understanding of Jupiter's clouds, showing they are not primarily composed of ammonia ice. Instead, it has been discovered that the clouds are formed from…
NASA's Europa Clipper mission is on track for its scheduled October 10 launch, aiming to explore Jupiter's icy moon, Europa. Scientists believe Europa could be one of the most promising…
Jupiter's atmospheric composition has been called into question through observations made using an old technique by an amateur astronomer, Steve Hill. The findings have indicated that the planet's iconic swirling…
In the next few weeks, NASA will embark on a significant mission to Europa, the fourth-largest moon of Jupiter. Named Europa Clipper, this spacecraft is designed to search for potential…
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has recently captured unusual behaviour in Jupiter's Great Red Spot (GRS). This massive storm, large enough to swallow Earth, has been active for over 150 years.…
NASA's Juno spacecraft has delivered breathtaking images of Jupiter, highlighting the planet's swirling, multicoloured storms and unique moons. During Juno's 66th close flyby on October 23, the spacecraft approached the…
NASA's Europa Clipper spacecraft, launched on October 14, 2024, is now moving at 35 kilometres per second and has travelled more than 13 million miles from Earth as reported by…
Magnetic vortices descending from Jupiter's ionosphere into its deep atmosphere are believed to trigger the formation of ultraviolet-absorbing anticyclonic storms, according to a study published on November 26 in Nature…
Recent research, published in Nature, has raised questions about the volcanic processes occurring on Jupiter's moon Io, particularly regarding the absence of a global magma ocean beneath its surface. Data…
