WASHINGTON, US
\nAmerican space agency National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has shared a video on Instagram which gives a glimpse of gas giant Jupiter.
\nAccording to foreign media report, footage has been captured by NASA\u2019s Juno mission during its close fly-by. It has been shot 2,500 miles (3,200 kilometres) above Jupiter on April 9.
\nThis was Juno\u2019s 41st fly-by above Jupiter and the spacecraft at a speed of 210,000 kilometres per hour relative to the planet. That is more than seven times faster than the speed of the International Space Station (ISS).
\nThe video in the form of an animated sequence, posted by NASA on Instagram, has been created by Citizen Scientist Andrea Luck using the JunoCam picture data in its raw form, the agency said in a statement. \u201cTake a ride with #JunoMission,\u201d according to the caption of Thursday\u2019s post.
\nThe Juno spacecraft had completed another fly-by of Jupiter, capturing a stunning image of the planet\u2019s southern hemisphere. A closer examination of the photograph revealed two additional celestial bodies nearby: Jupiter\u2019s moons Io and Europa.
\nJupiter, the biggest planet in the solar system, has 53 recognised moons and another 26 that have yet to be named. Although the rocky moon lo is the solar system\u2019s most volcanic globe, Europa\u2019s frozen surface conceals a huge ocean of liquid water underneath it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
