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.

Cylindrical map generated from data submitted via the JunoCam Planning section.
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.

The zeta function and Rheimans hypothesis, plus color theory and the speed of light mean earth and mars are the same at different points in time, can anyone hear me? NASA I’m trying to help. I have the equations you need but you won’t open your eyes
Thank you for accepting my request to join. I just read an article about the moon, lo. Under 1000 miles close? Amazing! Fascinating!

JunoCam is now showing the effects of that radiation on some of its parts. PJ56 images show a reduction in our dynamic range and an increase in background and noise. We invite citizen scientists to explore new ways to process these images to continue to bring out the beauty and mysteries of Jupiter and its moons.

Being part of the JunoCam image processing community, gaining a clearer understanding of the challenges would enable us to enhance our image processing techniques. Transparently sharing technical details, insights, and ongoing analysis from the project would boost our efficiency and improve our ability to devise effective workarounds.
The following image compares green channel PJ55_72 transformed with a very preliminary model of the image corruption issue with PJ56_191 raw data:
Data from recent orbits include "marble movie" images which use only two color filters, Blue and Red. What is the motivation for using two filters instead of three? And can you discuss how these long image sequences are used by the project.
