The Greatest Jupiter Portrait

Credit: NASA/JPL/SSI
The Cassini spacecraft hasn’t reached Saturn, but it still does great work. In late 2000, it swung by Jupiter. It took a series of natural color photos of the largest planet, and the Cassini imaging team assembled them into a portrait.
The Cassini also took a time-lapse movie of the Jovian cloud tops during the encounter.
