New data from NASA&#8217;s Juno spacecraft suggests that these &#8220;hot spots&#8221; are much wider and deeper than anticipated. The findings on Jupiter&#8217;s hot spots, along with an update on Jupiter&#8217;s polar cyclones, were revealed on Dec. 11, during a virtual media briefing at the American Geophysical Union&#8217;s fall conference.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2020-12-juno-spacecraft-quarter-century-jupiter-mystery.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Juno spacecraft updates quarter-century Jupiter mystery<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Phys.org&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twenty-five years ago, NASA sent history&#8217;s first probe into the atmosphere of the solar system&#8217;s largest planet.
