I know this mission is not meant to study any Jovian satellites, but is Juno going to, by chance, pass near enough to any satellites (particularly small, not well imaged satellites) that it could take any useful pictures of them? (Or will it be possible to finagle the final de-orbit burn to send it past a satellite for this purpose?)

In the Planetary Radio talk I've referenced, Candy Hansen mentioned, that Juno is planned to get close to one of the Ring moons. But since those moons are tiny, the moon is expected to show up as a small spot only.
--- Might be, that positional data of the moon can be refined this way. [I'd think, this thread should better be merged to the Jupiter approach thread.] |
