Welcome to Discussion
Jupiter
has a dynamic atmosphere where winds in the belts (brown) and zones (white) go
in opposite directions. Storms develop and evolve, and other atmospheric
features come and go. An
imaging team, the scientists that operate the cameras on NASA missions, always
begins with a discussion phase that covers what we know and what we would like
to learn. You are a member of our
JunoCam virtual imaging team. This
discussion page is a place for general thoughts about Jupiter and your questions
and ideas.
Campaigns
Campaigns are topics for discussion, and may become candidates for targeting during Perijove passes.
Cylindrical Map
We use images from amateur astronomers (uploaded on the Planning page) to create a new cylindrical map every 14 days. This is the latest one! We have identified long-lived storms as Points of Interest (POI’S) and invite you to share your thoughts about them.

Points of Interest
POI suggestion has been disabled due to the orientation of Juno, Jupiter, and the Sun. POI based discussion of existing POIs is still open.

Qupiter : World's largest natural quantum Computer- planet Jupiter.
What If Planet Jupiter is a naturally formed quantum computer?

How does the radiometers work? I guess a model is used to relate frequency emission of various substance, the attenuation of the signal with depth etc. How could that be calibrated on earth?
These images of Jupiter and Ganimede was captured on August 29, 2021 from city of Cremona (Northern Italy) through a 255mm F20 Maksutov Rumak telescope with Zwo ASI 224MC CMOS camera, IR Blocking filter and ADC Corrector. Video of 120sec at 30 fps with Sharpcap, was stacked 1800/3600 frames. Images processed with Astrosurface, registax, Fitswork, Camera Raw.
Wich is the Clyde's Spot in these images ? - Planet Jupiter taken from Cremona (Northern Italy) through a 255mm F20 Maksutov Rumak telescope + Zwo ASI 224MC CMOS color camera + ADC Corrector + Baader IR Pass 685nm filter / IR Blocking filter. Stacked 400/3600 frames at 30 fps. Software videocapture Sharpcap. Frames was aligned and stacked by Autostakkert. Images has been processed with software Astrosurface, Fitswork, Camera Raw. I so obtained an RGB image and Monochromatic image. Finally these RGB and Monochromatic images was added together. About the Clyde's Spot I have indicated the area in wich perhaps can be seen this detail. Can you confirm wich is exactly the Clyde's Spot in my images ? Many thanks and best regards.

Attached is my best educated guess. The orange arrows should point to the respective position of Clyde's spot.
Ok, Many thanks !!
