Data of Juno's Perijove-10 are going to be downlinked.
Here is a tiny 6000-fold time-lapsed simulation from 2017-12-16T16:30:00.000 to 2017-12-16T20:00:00.000: It shows, that during approach, Jupiter's night side has come into JunoCam's field of view, first. Then there have been some interesting new perspectives, before Jupiter's south polar region has been in JunoCam's view during departure. The simulation is based on preliminary, and on some reconstructed SPICE data. Timing of actual image data differ from the stills of the above tiny simulation. |

Here is a GIF time-lapse from the PJ10_33 and PJ10_36 images:
The images were obtained about 12 minutes apart. The time-lapse reveals the cyclonic motion of the STB Ghost which is the big feature at and slightly below center. North is up and the images are in simple cylindrical projection. Jupiter in Perijove-10's Io shine, noisy proof of principle: This is an amazing image even though it's not exactly the prettiest image of Jupiter I've seen. |
