The view from here 🌫️.

Dramatic atmospheric features in Jupiter's northern hemisphere are captured in this view from NASA's Juno spacecraft. The new perspective shows swirling clouds that surround a circular feature within a jet stream region called "Jet N6."

☁️ Jupiter Storm Tracker ☁️

A giant, spiraling storm in Jupiter’s southern hemisphere is captured in this animation from NASA’s Juno spacecraft. The storm is approximately 5,000 miles (8,000 kilometers) across, or roughly the width of the United States.

So long and thanks for all the fish! 🐬

A cloud in the shape of a dolphin appears to be swimming through Jupiter’s cloud bands in this series of color-enhanced images.

Io rising: Jupiter's volcanic moon rises just off the horizon of the gas giant planet in this new color-enhanced image. Slightly larger than Earth's moon, Io is the most volcanically active world in the solar system.

Spotted: Massive waves in Jupiter’s atmosphere. 

JunoCam has detected atmospheric wave trains -- towering structures that trail one after the other as they roam the planet.

Space out for a moment. Swirling clouds in a Jupiter jet stream are captured in the center of this color-enhanced image. A brown oval known as a “brown barge” is visible in the North North Temperate Belt region in the top-left portion of the image.

World of Swirl: Intricate swirls in Jupiter’s volatile northern hemisphere are captured in this color-enhanced image. Bursts of bright-white “pop-up” clouds appear scattered throughout the scene, with some visibly casting shadows on the neighboring cloud layers beneath them.
