   What is a Juno camera?

   • Juno’s color, visible-light camera, called JunoCam, is designed to capture remarkable pictures of Jupiter’s cloud tops. As Juno’s eyes, it will provide a wide view, helping to provide context for the spacecraft’s other instruments.

   What is JunoCam?

   • JunoCam is Juno's color imaging camera, which will provide close-up views of Jupiter's poles for the first time. "JunoCam doesn't have the scientific responsibilities of the other Juno instruments, but we took it as a challenge to build the most capable science i nstrument we could. It's one of the best cameras we've ever built."

   Why is JunoCam a visible camera?

   • So a visible camera, Junocam, was included primarily for education and public outreach (EPO), funded from the mission’s EPO budget and given a fairly constrained allocation of spacecraft mass resources.

   How long does a JunoCam camera last?

   • The camera is designed to last for at least seven orbits – enough time to take many pictures. JunoCam’s hardware is based on a descent camera, called MARDI, that was developed for NASA's Curiosity Mars rover. Some of its software was originally developed for NASA’s Mars Odyssey and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft.

   Is JunoCam still active?

   • Despite the intense magnetosphere of Jupiter, JunoCam was expected to be operational for at least the first eight orbits (September 2017), but as of December 2023 (57 orbits) remains active and has also been re-purposed from an outreach-only camera to a scientific instrument to study the dynamics of Jupiter's clouds, polar storms, and moons.

   JunoCam consists of a camera head and an electronics box (the box is housed in Juno's protective radiation vault). JunoCam takes images mainly during closest approach – about 3,100 miles (5,000 kilometers) above the cloud tops – when it has the best-possible vantage point.

   Aug 23, 2014 · Junocam is a wide-angle camera designed to capture the unique polar perspective of Jupiter offered by Juno’s polar orbit. Junocam’s four-color images include the best spatial resolution ever acquired of Jupiter’s cloudtops. Junocam will look for convective clouds and lightning in thunderstorms and derive the heights of the clouds.

    Aug 20, 2024 · Consisting of four star cameras on the spacecraft’s magnetometer boom, Juno’s ASC takes images of stars to determine the spacecraft’s orientation in space, which is vital to the success of the mission’s magnetic field experiment. But the instrument has also proved to be a valuable detector of high-energy particle fluxes in Jupiter’s magnetosphere.

    JunoCam. The JunoCam camera provides full color images of the Jovian atmosphere to support Education and Public Outreach (E/PO). JunoCam consists of two parts (both mounted outside of the radiation vault), the camera head, which includes the optics, detector, and front-end detector eletronics, and the elec ctronics box,
