The last flight of the Juno probe over the surface of Jupiter
In Roman mythology, Juno is the wife of the God Jupiter. The station has been operating in a polar highly elliptical orbit since the beginning of July 2016.
"Polar" means that the spacecraft flies close to the poles, and "highly elliptical" means that out of 53 days of one revolution, the flight near Jupiter takes only about two hours. Juno's scientific instruments allow scientists to look under the planet's cloud layer in different ranges.
