Through the use of the electromagnetic spectrum, especially infrared, NASA scientists have peered deeper into Jupiter’s atmosphere than ever before. This technology exposes complex cloud ...

A massive solar windstorm in 2017 compressed Jupiter's magnetosphere "like a giant squash ball," a new study reports. The discovery stemmed from an unusual temperature pattern scientists observed ...

As with so much else, no one knows the source of these breathtaking hues. But one clue came in 2019, when researchers found a way to recreate the spot’s color spectrum in the lab. Based on their ...

New discoveries about Jupiter could lead to a better understanding of Earth's own space environment and influence a long-running scientific debate about the solar system's largest planet.

The solar wind squeezed Jupiter’s magnetic field like a squash ball. This forced more energy into the poles, which heated the upper atmosphere and caused it to expand.

NASA has discovered the third known interstellar object to pass through our solar system, but the icy snowball object poses ...

It will swoop within 125 miles (200 kilometers) of Callisto and 250 miles (400 kilometers) of Europa and Ganymede, completing 35 flybys while circling Jupiter.

EARLY observations of the decametric radio emissions of Jupiter appeared to show that they had a narrow spectrum with a peak in the vicinity of 20 Mc./s. (refs. 1 and 2). As a result there were ...
