General Radio Discussion / Juno Listens to Jupiter's Auroras

« on: September 02, 2016, 2249 UTC »

Published on Sep 2, 2016
Thirteen hours of radio emissions from Jupiter's intense auroras are presented here, both visually and in sound. The data was collected when the spacecraft made its first orbital pass of the gas giant on Aug 27, 2016, with all spacecraft instruments turned on. The frequency range of these signals is from 7 to 140 kilohertz. Radio astronomers call these "kilometric emissions" because their wavelengths are about a kilometer long.

The full story and more images from Juno's first pass of Jupiter with all instruments on is at: https://www.nasa.gov/feature/jpl/jupi...
