Gemini Images Point Juno Spacecraft Toward Discovery
- tomrod 9y agoThat is a hard-to-parse headline! While I understand a bit about the effort to map Jupiter's atmosphere, the headline led me to believe they were also tracking a separate Discovery mission.
- Rooster61 9y agoI thought it was about old pictures taken by astronauts in the Gemini program somehow helping the Juno team. I was highly confused haha
- notadoc 9y agoAlways fun to remember that the Great Red Spot is basically the size of our entire planet Earth. That must be one hell of a storm.
- tomrod 9y agoDo I remember right, that three earths could fit inside?

- mikeash 9y ago10,250 miles is still bigger than the Earth, but not vastly bigger. We'd better hurry up if we want to squeeze the planet in there.
