NASA's Juno spacecraft captured stunning new images of Jupiter and its moon Io during a recent flyby, providing detailed views of the gas giant's clouds, storms, and volcanic moon. The mission, launched in 2011, aims to study Jupiter's gravitational field, magnetosphere, and other elements to unravel fundamental questions about the planet. Juno has also provided close-up snapshots of moons Ganymede, Europa, and Io, with plans to continue until September 2025. Additionally, the European Space Agency's Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) satellite and NASA's Europa Clipper mission are set to provide further exploration and imagery of Jupiter's moons in the coming years.
