Rings [ID: 2]

Saturn may have the most famous rings but Jupiter has some too. Jupiter’s rings are best imaged when looking towards the sun because of the way small particles scatter light. This is a familiar process that allows us for example to see dust hanging in the air when we look at the beam of light from a projector.

    I wonder if JUNO could take images of the rings, while having a perpendicular view to the rings disc, facing up or down, 90 degrees to Jupiters equatorial plane, covering both the planet and rings, covering the very internal border and the planets surface?
