US: More new discoveries about Jupiter and Moon Io

NASA says new data from its Juno mission has provided a clearer view of Jupiter's volatile atmosphere and volcanic activity on its fiery moon Io.

According to NASA, the Juno spacecraft gathered new findings by probing beneath Jupiter's dense cloud layer and studying the surface of Io.

The new data has helped scientists build a new model to better understand the fast-moving jet streams that surround Jupiter's vortex-filled north pole.

Launched on August 5, 2011, the Juno spacecraft arrived at Jupiter on July 4, 2016, after a journey of 2.8 billion km, with the goal of exploring the origin and evolution of Jupiter, thereby helping to better understand the Solar System and other large planets in the universe./.
