In 2016, a major event in the Solar system exploration is going to take place: the arrival\u00a0of a new space proble around Jupiter : JUNO. This should take place during the summer of 2016 and it will be the first since the Galileo orbiter (1996-2003). Scientists ask amateurs for their contribution to the study…<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Why amateur images?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

In the context of the revival of pro\/am cooperation in planetary studies, amateur data is important from several points of view:<\/p>\n

1) To prepare the job of the probe before its arrival<\/strong>, in order to identify what interesting structures must be followed in first place. Jupiter is indeed a planet that must observed on a long-term basis, and despite its high resolution, Juno will have to fit into this long-running history.
\n2) Helping to “context” the orbiter images<\/strong>, that will be in a too narrow angle of view for this job.
\n3) To contribute to the fine study of structures<\/strong>, by imaging them when they are out of view from Juno cameras.<\/p>\n

How to participate?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

By taking images as usual, from various filters if possible. Images will be uploaded on the following webpage:<\/p>\n

To my eyes there are two interesting features to note:
