Large Gas Giants are weirder than we assumed

Juno has made a LOT of discoveries, since ... THIS EVENT ... ~9.75 years ago ...


When NASA makes "trailers" for a mission event that looks like the preview of a Horror Movie :eek: ... you KNOW that there's a lot of nail biting involved at mission control. 🫣

If this "mission event trailer" inspires anyone reading this on how to setup and frame the "job" of a wildcat researcher wanting to collect data on the fringes of known space ... you might just have the adventure seed you need for a Traveller campaign.

After all ... outer space is place you visit ... not a place where you can Live Forever™ ...



The Juno probe completed its 81st flyby of Jupiter on 25 Feb 2026.
Juno ... is STILL ALIVE ... and DOING SCIENCE! :cool:

What has been found since then? :rolleyes:
Try a science communicator video that lasts for more than 1 hour ...


And yes ... the "fuzzy core" discoveries, and the implications for planetary formation and evolution ... are in this video with 17 chapters to it.
