On Jupiter, a storm doesn’t just brew, it can simmer for centuries. The planet’s atmosphere is a perpetual engine of ...

NASA’s Juno spacecraft reveals Jupiter’s superstorms generate intense lightning, forming a powerful and complex electrical weather system.

Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, has massive storms that match its size. These storms—some of which can last ...

On Jupiter, lightning releases titanic energy: up to a million times the power of those we know on Earth. This information owes much to NASA's Juno mission. Since its arrival in 2016, the probe ...

New data from NASA’s almost-retired Juno orbiter has revealed that lightning bolts on Jupiter are significantly more powerful than previously thought, frequently discharging over 100 times the energy ...

NASA's Juno spacecraft passed north-to-south (yellow track) over Jupiter's atmosphere on 17 August 2022, detecting a cluster of radio pulses from lightning (cyan symbols marking instrument pointing ...

NASA's Juno spacecraft has been orbiting Jupiter for 10 years. During that time, it has studied the huge storms on the planet, such as the Great Red Spot, which is larger than Earth. New data shows ...

NASA's space probe Juno might have just cracked the code on Jupiter's mysterious lightning. In the data from Juno’s first eight passes by the planet, the spacecraft’s Microwave Radiometer Instrument ...

When NASA's Juno spacecraft reached Jupiter in 2016, its observations took some of the guesswork out of understanding the massive gas giant. It showed us that the planet's magnetic field, already ...

Jupiter's lightning has long been of interest to planetary scientists, as it marks stormy spots where researchers can look to learn more about convection in Jupiter's atmosphere. Observing lightning ...
