I'd imagine aerobreaking at a planet like Jupiter is an extremely risky thing to do, given its gravity and such. I also imagine that Juno is nowhere near formidable as the Leonov. (Internet points for anyone who gets that reference)

The Jet Propulsion Laboratory has a massive 20-minute B-roll of footage and animations for media use over on thier JPLraw YouTube channel. Here it is, if you're interested! n.n

This is True. Scott Bolton, the principal investigator of Juno, made the short film in collaboration with Apple Music. They did the short film, while Reznor and Ross did the music.

I know right? I feel like Jupiter is a perfect allegory for the glass-half-full idiom. If you see Jupiter as a failed star, you're a pessimist; if you see it as a successful planet, you're an optimist! XD

Haha I did not see that the first time! Well spotted! How wonderful of Valve to pay homage to Juno in such a cute and humorous way! Now, back to destroying my wallet with these sales! XD

junomission 内の LausanneAndy によるリンク So Juno is carrying 3 lego figurines - where can you buy these?

I'm not sure that they are; I'm definitely not aware of such a set being marketed.

Only on reddit will you see an intelligent spaceflight engineer, working on humanity's next great endeavor, reply to a question by somebody named "mlp-r34-clopper". XD

junomission 内の coalshinconfidential によるリンク Will Juno definitively rule out whether or not Jupiter has a solid central mass?

[–]PhilipTerryGraham 9ポイント10ポイント  (0子コメント)

It is actually one of the central goals of the Juno mission! Juno's name itself is a reference to the mythological Juno, and how she unraveled the secrets of her husband, Jupiter. The Juno spacecraft will peer beneath the clouds using data collected from the inner magnetosphere, including the nature and dynamics of auroral particles among other things. Studying the magnetic field of Jupiter will help better understand Jupiter's interior, and whether or not it has a solid core, and if so, whether its a rocky or metallic core. The Southwest Research Institute has an interactive page on their Juno website all about it, which you can find here!
