"Galileo viewed the stripes on Jupiter more than 400 years ago. Until now we only had a superficial understanding of them, and have been able to relate these stripes to cloud features along Jupiter's jets," Kaspi said. "Now, following the Juno gravity measurements, we know how deep these extend and what is their structure beneath the cloud level. It's like going from a 2D picture to a 3D one."
