Juno is set to flyby of Europa on Sept. 29, 2022 (PJ45)

I can't wait to see the results of this flyby!


Sadly not much information is available online.


Jason Has a beautiful animation of encounter on youtube.

Junocam will take four RGB images on one-minute intervals starting at around terminator crossing (roughly 09:37:30 UT), using the same method used for the Ganymede imaging last year. I'm not sure when we can expect the data to show up, hopefully before that weekend but no guarantees.

One thing to keep in mind for everyone is that Artemis is playing havoc on the DSN schedule for a lot of missions. The first launch opportunity is on the 27th and if that is a go and succeeds, there be might some impact on the schedule for later that week. So if images show up later than everyone expects compared to previous perijoves, that could be why.

Seriously - much kudos to DSN schedulers across every mission out there - between the Artemis requirements and the blunderbuss of CubeSats it's deploying - the impact to the DSN is like nothing I've ever seen.
