New Jupiter Weirdness From Juno

Juno's mission to Jupiter has revealed unexpected findings about the planet's atmosphere, magnetic field, and core. The probe's unique orbit allows it to study Jupiter's poles, uncovering massive cyclones and auroras. Juno discovered that Jupiter's magnetic field is much stronger and more irregular than expected, likely due to its Dynamo of liquid hydrogen. The gravitational field mapping suggests a larger, more diffuse core. Juno's microwave detectors have also identified complex atmospheric structures. These findings challenge previous assumptions and open new avenues for research.
