Auroras and hazes glow in this composite image of Jupiter taken by the James Webb Space Telescope’s Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam). NIRCam has three specialized infrared filters that showcase details of the planet. Since infrared light is invisible to the human eye, the light has been mapped onto the visible spectrum: the auroras are mapped to redder co...

NASA’s robotic spacecraft Juno is continuing on its highly-elongated orbits around our Solar System’s largest planet. The featured video is from perijove 11 in ear...
我们的阿尔忒弥斯一号飞行测试 “准备发射”…… 第一次深空长时间生物测试… 韦伯太空望远镜捕捉到了木星的新图像…… 最近新闻速递，尽在「本周NASA」！ 影像来源：NASA 翻译：灼眼的粉丝 阿尔忒弥斯一号任务已做好飞行准备，”准备发射！” 8月22日，任务经理结束了对阿尔忒弥斯一号无人飞行试验的飞行准备审查，向各团队发出了 “开始发射 “的命令。 该审查是对我们的太空发射系统火箭和猎户座航天器支持阿尔忒弥斯一号飞越月球和返回地球飞行测试的准备情况的深入评估。这次任务的主要目标在宇航员执行后续阿尔忒弥斯任务之前，从发射到溅落，彻底测试综合系统。阿尔忒弥斯一号任务目前的目标是不早于8月29日发射。 第一次深空生物任务 生物哨兵（BioCont...
韦伯的NIRCam从三个滤镜——F360M（红色）、F212N（黄绿色）和F150W2（青色）拍摄的木星合成图像，并校准了经因行星自转而形成的误差。 影像来源：NASA, ESA, CSA, Jupiter ERS Team; image processing by Judy Schmidt. 伴随着巨大的风暴、强风、极光以及极端的温度和压力条件，木星发生了很多事情。现在，NASA的詹姆斯·韦伯太空望远镜捕捉到了这颗行星的新图像。韦伯对木星的观测将为科学家提供更多关于木星内部生命的线索。 “说实话，我们真的没想到它会这么好。”加州大学伯克利分校名誉教授、行星天文学家伊姆克·德·佩特说。德帕特尔与巴黎天文台教授蒂埃里·福切特一起领导了对木星的观测，这是韦伯早期发布科学计划国际合作的一部分。韦伯本身是一项由NASA...
Launched in 1977, the twin Voyager probes are NASA’s longest-operating mission and the only spacecraft ever to explore interstellar space. 45 years on, Voyager 1 and 2 continue to provide us with observations of the farthest reaches of space. Our Voyager 1 spacecraft zoomed toward Jupiter in January and February 1979, capturing hundreds of images of Jupiter ...
八月份的天空会发生什么？拿起你的双筒望远镜来观测行星，展望英仙座，以及和天鹅座一起翱翔。
As NASA’s Juno mission completed its 43rd close flyby of Jupiter on July 5, 2022, its JunoCam instrument captured this striking view of vortices — hurricane-like spiral wind patterns — near the planet’s north pole. These powerful storms can be over 30 miles (50 kilometers) in height and hundreds of miles across. Figuring out how they form is key to understan...
2022年7月20日 Jupiter and Ring in Infrared from Webb Image Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI; Processing & License: Judy Schmidt Explanation: Why does Jupiter have rings? Jupiter’s main ring was discovered in 1979 by NASA’s passing Voyager 1 spacecraft, but its origin was then a mystery. Data from NASA’s Galileo spacecraft that orbited Jupite...
2022年7月17日 Europa and Jupiter from Voyager 1 Image Credit: NASA, Voyager 1, JPL, Caltech; Processing & License: Alexis Tranchandon / Solaris Explanation: What are those spots on Jupiter? Largest and furthest, just right of center, is the Great Red Spot — a huge storm system that has been raging on Jupiter possibly since Giovanni Cassini’s li...
