NASA Juno Spacecraft Jupiter Flyby

NASA's Juno probe successfully performed her Perijove-11 Jupiter flyby on 7th February, 2018. This movie (created from JunoCam image data by Gerald Eichstädt) starts with a reconstructed in-bound sequence approaching Jupiter from north on its night side. Then the orbit approaches Jupiter down to an altitude of about 3,500 km a bit north of the equator. JunoCam looked towards Jupiter's limb during close flyby. This is followed by a transition into the outbound orbit, during which Jupiter's south polar region comes into the field of view.
