The Hubble Space Telescope observed Jupiter on April 3rd, 2017 - just days before Jupiter is in opposition on April 7th. This new image of Jupiter is part of Hubble's Outer Planets Atmospheres Legacy program, which is one of...

How viewing Jupiter in infrared and ultraviolet can uncover its secrets.

NASA is sending the Juno spacecraft to Jupiter, to peer beneath its cloudy surface and explore the giant planet's structure and magnetic field. Juno's twin magnetometers, built at Goddard Space Flight Center, will give...

In this video, we explore Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system. From its massive size and composition to its turbulent cloud layers and the ongoing storm known as the Red Spot, we delve into the wonders of this gas giant....

A fact-filled look at 23 of the most important events from man's on-going adventure in space. 1982, the first US woman was sent into space. Comets smash into Jupiter and the impacts of this were recorded. Space Facts. Part 7

In the 1970's, no vehicle had gone beyond the asteroids between Mars and Jupiter, that is until Pioneer 10.

As large as 1,000 Earths, Jupiter is the heavy hitter of the solar system. Even its Great Red Spot is larger than Earth, yet it’s shrinking! In this episode of Gravity Assist, Planetary Science Director Jim Green talks with Jared Espley...

This new Hubble Space Telescope view of Jupiter, taken on June 27, 2019, reveals the giant planet's trademark Great Red Spot, and a more intense color palette in the clouds swirling in Jupiter's turbulent atmosphere than seen in...

The Hubble Space Telescope is more well known for its picturesque views of nebulae and galaxies, but it's also useful for studying our own planets, including Mars.



Hubble imaged Mars on May 12, 2016 - ten days...

Solar eclipses don't just happen here on earth - moons of other planets also pass between those planets and the sun, resulting in various types of solar eclipses on Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and even non-planets like Pluto,...

Upon viewing the Our Distant Neighbors video series, students will be able to do the following: Create a simple diagram of the sun and the orbital paths of each planet around the sun. Label each of the eight planets. Explain that the sun...

The Voyager 1 spacecraft has traveled farther away from Earth than any human-made object. Candy Hansen and David Grinspoon talk about the Voyager mission, and its humbling perspective of our planet as a tiny blue dot in the blackness of...

This video is about how the way we describe the world can influence the way we perceive it. In particular, with regards to Bohmian mechanics, Schrodinger wave functions, Feynman path integrals, and Galilean...

Taking advantage of the total lunar eclipse of January 2019, astronomers, using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, have measured the amount of ozone in Earth’s atmosphere.



The method used serves...

This video is about the cycloid curves on Jupiter's moon Europa - they're ridges or valleys...

Hunting for rogue planets is like hunting for an invisible needle in a haystack. But we're getting a much clearer view thanks to gravitational microlensing surveys. And it looks like there are a LOT more of them out there than we thought.

In this video, we look at the architecture behind Google Brains im2txt model. • View TensorFlow research Github page • Understand the connection between Inception for classification and LSTMs for caption generation
