Exploring Jupiter’s Magnetic Field

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 scientists their first look within Jupiter at the powerful dynamo that drives its magnetic field. In this interview, Deputy Principal Investigator Jack Connerney discusses the Juno mission and its magnetometers. This video is public domain and can be downloaded from the Scientific Visualizat
