Tweedledee Posted July 10, 2016 Author Share Posted July 10, 2016 That was really inspirational and exciting stuff. Most enjoyable Sky at Night I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I'll watch it on catch up. Big sportfest on telly today. France v Portugal seems to be heading for extra time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAZ Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Yes, I enjoyed that, a brilliant and exciting mission. I can't believe how precise it has been, 1 second off planned mission time, that is just awesome and that and it's going in real close on the orbit passes, it will get damned close down to 4500km. Roll on August the 27th for the next data to come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Bino-viewer Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Thanks for the reminder....... Just watched it on the computer on iPlayer. Looking forward to the science and some great imagery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz Type-R Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 (edited) Top stuff, just watched it now, At last months meet we had Rosie Johnson in from Leicester Uni. Her PHD is based on the aurora of Jupiter and some of her work has gone into mission planning of Juno, I`m hoping to get her back in 9-10 months time for a 1st hand update. Dr Jonathan Nichols who was on the program I think, is Rosie's boss / mentor / teacher....

BAZ Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 I think it's confusing that they are showing the Aurora superimposed on a visual image of the planet, it's not visible as it's in the ultra violet and X-ray range, people are seeing this on the News and asking me if I have ever seen them. If it was like that all the time we would have amazing views through the scopes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Chris Lintott added to the confusion by asking "what would a person see, if stood on the surface (assuming there was a solid surface) of Jupiter looking up".

Guest Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Did Chris make a deliberate pun when he said the mood was "jovial"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
