On March 8th, 2016 Earth and Jupiter will have a close encounter. The giant planet will be "up all night," soaring almost overhead at midnight and not setting until the sky brightens with the twilight hues of sunrise on March 9th. In July, the Juno mission will give us an even closer look.

I wish a had a telescope or one of these super zoom cameras :/
Big and mysterious jupiter..... one thing i know for sure, jupiter ain't flat
Cant wait to see what JUNO finds!
Great video, thank you. Noticed her last night.
I wonder if we can find any signs of the Shoemaker-Levy 9 comet that crashed into Jupiter over 20 years ago :O
I can't wait!
I love the part about the dynamo...hehe.
why spend only 20 month there? Why is the de-orbit necessary and planned?
2 in a row goodness. march 8, jupiter close ecounter with earth, then march 9 there is solar eclipse in Indonesia.
I thought the big red spot had faded last year.
wow!great video, i can not believe there are no comments.i guess everyone must be distracted.
Who is the narrator this time? She's good.
You really should emphasize that Jupiter will be in the same basic location for many weeks, a fact few people seem to understand. Encourage those who can't get out on the night of the 8th to take a look now, or in the middle of the month.
i saw it
Hi
No comments?
سبحان الله
This was mostly a juno advertisement lol...
Who is here for Sirius? =)
~ michelle is that your sweet voice again ? ruclips.net/video/jfclYeh0QPo/видео.html
+ then I & eye would wish for Juno to capture a massive cosmic oxygen incursion upon THOR's dense hydrogen behind in polar Aura views
= dissociated star dust oxygen or cometary lumps such as the Giant Red Spot's progenitor , either way would be quite the reveling
The atmosphere of Jupiter (THOR ) is the largest planetary atmosphere in the Solar System.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmosphere_of_Jupiter . It is mostly made of molecular hydrogen and helium in roughly solar proportions; other chemical compounds are present only in small amounts and include methane, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and water. Although water is thought to reside deep in the atmosphere, its directly measured concentration is very low. The nitrogen, sulphur, and noble gas abundances in Jupiter's atmosphere exceed solar values by a factor of about three.[1]
+docatomics The Great Red Spot is a persistent anticyclonic storm on the planet Jupiter, 22° south of the equator, which has lasted for at least 186 years and possibly as long as 351 years or more.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Red_Spot [1][2] The storm is large enough to be visible through Earth-based telescopes. It was probably first observed by Giovanni Domenico Cassini, who described it around 1665. The spot has been noticeably red at times throughout its observed history, yet has not been appreciably red in the visible spectrum since a rather brief period in the mid 1970s.
+docatomics Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest in the Solar System. It is a giant planet with a mass one-thousandth that of the Sun, but two and a half times that of all the other planets in the Solar System combined. Jupiter is a gas giant, along with Saturn. (Uranus and Neptune are ice giants.) Jupiter was known to astronomers of ancient times. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jupiter [11] When viewed from Earth, Jupiter can reach an apparent magnitude of −2.94, bright enough for its reflected light to cast shadows,[13] and making it on average the third-brightest object in the night sky after the Moon and Venus.
The magnetosphere of Jupiter is responsible for intense episodes of radio emission from the planet's polar regions. Volcanic activity on the Jovian moon Io (see below) injects gas into Jupiter's magnetosphere, producing a torus of particles about the planet. As Io moves through this torus, the interaction generates Alfvén waves that carry ionized matter into the polar regions of Jupiter. As a result, radio waves are generated through a cyclotron maser mechanism, and the energy is transmitted out along a cone-shaped surface. When the Earth intersects this cone, the radio emissions from Jupiter can exceed the solar radio output.[67]
