Juno

NASA's Juno spacecraft won't move into a closer orbit around Jupiter as originally planned, agency officials announced today (Feb. 17).

As NASA's Juno spacecraft prepares for another close approach to Jupiter, the agency expects to make a decision in February about when, or if, to perform a delayed maneuver to adjust its orbit.

About 100 volunteer contributors have been processing images captured by NASA's Juno spacecraft.

Saturn and its rings may be the jewel of the solar system, but Jupiter has "pearls" and a NASA spacecraft has the picture to prove it.

NASA's mission to the solar system's largest planet completed its latest close approach without a hitch.

Members of the public are getting involved with the Juno mission to Jupiter by helping to process and analyze images sent back by one of the instruments on board.
