The planet's South Pole is equally interesting. Here's an unprecedented infrared view of Jupiter's southern aurora:Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/MSSSThis is NASA's first opportunity to observe this region in detail, thanks to Juno's unique polar orbit. Jupiter's southern aurora can hardly be seen from Earth due to our position in respect to its South Pole. And while we knew that the first-ever infrared views of Jupiter's South Pole could reveal the planet's southern aurora, we were amazed to see it for the first time. Thirteen hours of radio emissions from Jupiter's auroras were recorded by Juno's Waves instrument at frequencies ranging from 7 to 140 kilohertz.
