Jupiter's north pole is totally weird - CNET

  • Enlarge ImageThis image was taken about two hours prior to Juno's closest approach to Jupiter. NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/MSSS Jupiter's south pole was well documented by Cassini on its way to Satu, but the north pole (home of Jovian Santa, one could only assume) has remained much more mysterious. This is set to change with the arrival of Jupiter probe Juno, which completed its first flyby of the north pole on August 27 and has already started delivering.On that flyby, Juno got busy taking photos with its JunoCam instrument from a distance of just 4,200 kilometres (2,500 miles) above Jupiter's clouds as it travelled over a period of six hours from the north pole to the south. The resulting 6 MB of data took NASA a day and a half to download.It will take even longer to fully analyse the data, but the photos have already revealed that there's nothing else like Jupiter's north pole in the solar system."First g,jupiter,jupiter ed,jupiter grades,jupiter north pole,jupiter florida,jupiter ascending,jupiter moons,jupiter pictures,jupiter ascending cast,jupiter ascending 2 ...ادامه مطلب

  • Juno sends back its first view from orbit around Jupiter - CNET

  • Enlarge ImageThe big guy and three of its largest moons as seen from Juno. NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/MSSS About a week after NASA's Juno spacecraft entered orbit around Jupiter on July 4, the first images taken from the spacecraft's perch around the largest planet in the solar system have made their way back to Earth. On Sunday, six days after starting its orbit, Juno's visible light camera was tued on and the JunoCam captured the above scene, proving it survived its first pass through the planet's intense radiation. (We already heard the audio evidence that it made it into Jupiter's magnetosphere.) The view shows Jupiter with its famous giant red spot on display, as well as three of its four major moons: Io, Europa and Ganymede. While Io is a turbulent world marked by violent volcanic activity, Europa and Ganymede are believed to harbor hidden ocean, with Europa a leading target for the search for life beyond Earth.NASA says high-resolution views of Jupiter itself from Juno will arrive in a few weeks. For more than a year and a half, the spacecraft will circle the gas giant, studying its huge auroras and peaking beneath its dense clouds to lea more about the planet's structure and maybe even look for signs of crazy sci-fi creatures inhabiting its atmosphere or unseen oceans.

  • By Jove! Juno successfully enters Jupiter's orbit, and you get to take the pictures - CNET

  • NASA's solar-powered Juno spacecraft arrives at Jupiter on July 4, 2016. NASA This Fourth of July, while the rest of America is busy eating hotdogs and lighting fireworks (hopefully at the same time), the dedicated scientists and engineers of NASA are once again putting in the long hours, this time to bring us never before seen pictures of Jupiter. But once NASA gets us there, it's up to us to take pictures of the action. After almost five years hurtling solo through space, the solar-powered Juno spacecraft is today set to enter Jupiter's orbit, before spending 20 months circling the gas giant. In this time, Juno will make 37 trips around Jupiter, becoming the first spacecraft to orbit the planet's poles, getting within 3,100 miles (5,000 kilometres) of the cloud tops. And, for the first time, NASA is handing the camera over to the public. As part of the mission, members of the public will be able to choose points of interest for the spacecraft's JunoCam to capture in colour photos, before getting a chance to process them and share them online. It's another milestone for NASA, which has spent the past year celebrating its fair share of achievements in space science. Almost a year ago to the day, NASA's New Horizons space probe conducted its eagerly-anticipated Pluto fly-by, zooming past the dwarf planet at 30,000mph and sending back brilliant images and data. Now, it's Jupiter's tu for some attention, with NASA saying Juno will provide "new answers to ongoing mysteries about the planet's core, composition and magnetic fields." It's already been busy delivering data back to earth, sending its first photograph of Jupiter and four of its moons last week, before beaming back an eerie audio track as it crossed into the planet's magnetic field. Now, Juno is set to perform "a suspenseful orbit insertion maneuver" to get close to Jupiter, with a 35-minute bu of its main engine slowing the , ...ادامه مطلب

  • The sounds of Juno approaching Jupiter are totally spooky - CNET

  • The new data on Jupiter keeps getting weirder and more wonderful as NASA's Juno spacecraft approaches the massive planet to begin orbiting it on Monday. The solar-powered probe, which began its jouey in 2011, has already been collecting data on the solar wind and more. In the video below, data from the moment Juno crossed into Jupiter's magnetic field is presented as an audio stream.Late last week, Juno crossed the bow shock, which NASA describes as analogous to a sonic boom on Earth. It's the threshold where the solar wind (basically energized particles thrown off into space by the sun) begins to be affected by the planet's powerful magnetosphere. Even more eerie is the sound of the spacecraft passing the actual boundary between the magnetic fields of the sun and Jupiter."We've just crossed the boundary into Jupiter's home turf," said Juno principal investigator Scott Bolton, of Southwest Research Institute, in a news release. "We're closing in fast on the planet itself and already gaining valuable data." [embedded content] The sounds of space tend to be odd, as we've leaed from Rosetta and Voyager previously.Part of the reason these new sounds of crossing that border are so dramatic is that Jupiter's magnetosphere is considered the largest structure in the solar system, according to NASA. Yes, that means the planet's magnetic field is even larger than that of the sun's. You definitely don't want to put your credit cards or hard drives anywhere near the thing if you value your data. Presumably, NASA has figured out a way to shield Juno's components from it."If Jupiter's magnetosphere glowed in visible light, it would be twice the size of the full moon as seen from Earth," says the University of Iowa's William Kurth, lead co-investigator for the Juno's Waves investigation.Scientists report that the border region between the domains of Jupiter and the sun has been more complex than expected, with all sorts of weird signatu, ...ادامه مطلب

  • NASA partners with Apple on Jupiter mission soundtrack - CNET

  • Enlarge Image"Visions of Harmony" is designed to highlight "the link between exploring space and making music." Apple Space exploration and music have a long history together, with astronauts on moon missions traditionally being woken up by mission control with a musical selection.So it makes sense, that with the Juno probe mere days from its destination of Jupiter's orbit, NASA would like some music to mark the occasion. So the US space agency teamed up with Apple to offer songs inspired by the mission.As part of the collaboration, Apple launched a Destination: Jupiter page on iTunes on Thursday that features songs by Brad Paisley, Corrine Bailey Rae, Trent Reznor and others. The songs sell for $1.29 a piece.The partnership also yielded a short film called "Visions of Harmony," which Apple says highlights "the link between exploring space and making music." It features songs from artists like Weezer and Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor.After nearly five years en route to Jupiter, Juno is set to arrive Jupiter's polar orbit on July 4.

  • Juno closing in on Jupiter, sends first photograph - CNET

  • Enlarge Image NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS Just as Cassini has spent 12 years giving us an unprecedented look at Satu, so too does NASA hope the Juno probe will provide invaluable information about our solar system's biggest planetary resident. After nearly five years en route to Jupiter, Juno has nearly arrived at its destination.And it's sent back a little teaser of what's to come: a colour photograph of Jupiter and its four largest moons. Clockwise from top left, the white dots are Ganymede, Io, Europa and Callisto, with Jupiter appearing in yellow on the right, its cloud bands just visible. This image was taken on June 21, while Juno was still nearly a fortnight from its destination, with Juno's high-res optical camera, the JunoCam. The images are only going to get more spectacular from here.When Juno arrives on July 4, it's going to enter a polar orbit around Jupiter. From there, it will study the planet's poles, composition, atmosphere and magnetosphere, weather and gravity."This image is the start of something great," said southwest Research Institute Juno principal investigator Scott Bolton. "In the future we will see Jupiter's polar auroras from a new perspective. We will see details in rolling bands of orange and white clouds like never before, and even the Great Red Spot."Let's block ads! بخوانید, ...ادامه مطلب

  • Infrared Jupiter looks hot as Juno spacecraft approaches - CNET

  • Enlarge ImageThe European Southe Observatory's Very Large Telescope captured this infrared image of Jupiter in preparation for the Juno spacecraft's arrival at the giant planet in July. ESO/L. Fletcher NASA's solar-powered Juno spacecraft has been cruising through space for about five years since it launched in 2011. Next month it will finally enter orbit around Jupiter to begin its study of the Jovian system. Some of the prep work here on Earth for the mission has included training big ground-based telescopes on the gas giant to piece together a map of the planet to aid in Juno's close-up exploration. On Monday, the European Southe Observatory released the above infrared image of Jupiter that makes the planet appear as a fiery infeo. It's just one of many views that will be used to create a more complete picture of Juno's destination."These maps will help set the scene for what Juno will witness in the coming months," said Leigh Fletcher, of the University of Leicester, in a news release. Fletcher leads a team helping with the mapping effort. "Observations at different wavelengths across the infrared spectrum allow us to piece together a three-dimensional picture of how energy and material are transported upwards through the atmosphere."This image was created by a method similar to the burst mode that many smartphones now employ. Basically, the Very Large Telescope at ESO was used to capture a series of shots of Jupiter. Then the one for each section of the planet with the least distortion from Earth's atmosphere was chosen and stitched together with a series of the other "lucky" shots to create a full infrared view.Juno is set to be inserted into orbit around Jupiter on July 4.

  • Microsoft's Windows 10 upgrades are getting even more sneaky-pushy - CNET

  • Enlarge ImageHere comes Windows 10... screenshot by Lance Whitney/CNET Microsoft has a new way of trying to get Windows 10 onto your computer, whether you want it or not. Users of Windows 7 and 8.1 have become familiar with -- jaded by, even -- the insistent, seemingly daily popups urging them to "Get Window 10." Those messages have started taking a more aggressive tu. Instead of simply giving you the option to install its latest operating system (or not), Microsoft now automatically schedules a date and time to update your PC to Windows 10. If you don't want the software update or if you want to change the installation date, you have to take deliberate action: manually click a link in the message, then choose to reschedule it or cancel it altogether. Kinda sneaky, isn't it? Especially compared with the messages you've been seeing. If you click the OK button, thinking you're just getting rid of the message, the automatic update is scheduled. You'll then find Windows 10 on your PC sometime over the next several days without realizing that you agreed to it. Microsoft did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Following the debacle of the little-loved Windows 8, Microsoft has been working hard to convince people to jump to Windows 10, which is available for free to users of Windows 7 or 8.1. That freebie, though, is due to end July 29, the one-year anniversary of version 10's debut. After that date, people will have to pay to upgrade. In other words, they'll have even less incentive. The latest version of Windows has been making inroads. Earlier this month, Microsoft announced that Windows 10 had found a home on 300 million active devices, a tally that includes PCs, phones and the Xbox One game console. That's nearly a third of the way to the software giant's goal of reaching 1 billion Windows 10 devices within two to three years of the software's release.Likewise, Windows, ...ادامه مطلب

  • Rumoured PlayStation 4 'NEO' upgrades power and aims for 4K - CNET

  • The upgraded specs according to Giant Bomb. Giant Bomb Whispers of an upgraded "PlayStation 4.5" began earlier this year, but now firm details are emerging, with the gaming website Giant Bomb citing unnamed sources and a leaked inteal document for an upgrade that includes processing, graphics and memory upgrades, as well as 4K resolution.Called NEO, as Giant Bomb reports, the upgraded console will not have its own exclusive games. Instead, all games must have exactly the same features for PS4 and NEO owners, with the NEO consoles able to run an improved version, such as higher resolution graphics, or more players in local multiplayer. All games must also have the same peripheral support, and players will all appear on the same PlayStation Network. This is to keep players on both consoles connected.According to Giant Bomb's report, Sony is expecting developers of NEO games to meet or exceed the original PS4's frame rate, and would like developers to reach for the 4K resolution. In addition, games that have already been released will be able to patch for the upgrades.Sony did not immediately respond to a request for comment.Let's block ads! بخوانید, ...ادامه مطلب
