Southern Aurora, PJ62-136. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm leaning strongly towards it being lens glare.

This just looks like stray light to me; note the curves in the red channel that look like reflections of the bright limb. We take these images because there's nothing else to do given the current image geometry, and while we call them "aurora search" it's not with much expectation that Junocam could see an aurora if there was one.
