Home / VLT Captures Stunning Infrared Images of Jupiter. Posted in Press Release VLT Captures Stunning Infrared Images of Jupiter by SpaceRef June 27, 2016 July 15, 2024.

On Jupiter, the cation has been suggested as a possible dark matter detector, but in this study, it was used as a proxy for the aurorae variability. It turns out that they change faster than ...

Jupiter’s Equatorial Zone and Great Red Spot stand out in this infrared image from the James Webb Space Telescope because their high-altitude hazes reflect sunlight well.

Because infrared light gets trapped by thick clouds, the infrared images of the planet create a jack-o-lantern effect, as seen above: Jupiter’s atmosphere glows bright in thin haze and light ...

Juno arrived at the Jupiter system in 2016, but a failed thruster meant that it is now stuck in a wide, polar orbit that brings it close to Jupiter and its moons every 53 days. Still, during those ...

This infrared glow, from Jupiter’s internal heat, would have been blocked by thicker clouds, but can pass through Jupiter’s hazy atmosphere unobscured.
