Hubble Maps Jupiter in 4k Ultra HD

Like the speed of an advancing race car driver, the winds in the outermost “lane” of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot are accelerating – a discovery only made possible by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, which has monitored the planet for more than a decade. Researchers analyzing Hubble’s regular “storm reports” found that the average wind speed just within the boundaries of the storm, known as a high-speed ring, has increased by up to 8 percent from 2009 to 2020. In contrast, the winds near the red spot’s innermost region are moving significantly more slowly, like someone cruising lazily on a sunny Sunday afternoon.

When you think of the universe, what do you imagine? Chances are the colorful pictures of galaxies and star clusters that come into view are from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. For 30 years, the bus-sized telescope has been orbiting the Earth as one of humanity’s most important windows to the universe. Hubble was designed to last 15 years, but on April 24 it will mark three decades in space. Chat with Hubble scientists virtually on Friday, April 24, from 7:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. EDT , as we reveal a breathtaking new image for the telescope’s diamond anniversary. Share with your viewers some of Hubble’s most dazzling views of the cosmos. * Interviews will be conducted using video chat programs including Skype and Facetime *To schedule an interview, please fill out this form: https://forms.gle/RxgdbqKBDeBGMkvJ7 Throughout human history, we have wondered about our place among the stars. Thanks to Hubble, we have a front-row seat to watch our universe evolve before our eyes. Hubble’s observations have fundamentally changed our understanding of the universe, including determining how old it is. It has changed our views of the planets in our own solar system, capturing Jupiter’s famous Great Red Spot shrinking over time, and discovering new objects such as planetary moons and icy objects beyond Pluto. Hubble has shown us the birth of stars and even the creation of black holes. As it turns 30, Hubble continues to push the boundaries of exploration.SUGGESTED ANCHOR INTRO:A SPECIAL SOMETHING IS TURNING THIRTY TODAY: NASA’S ICONIC HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE COMMEMORATES THREE DECADES OF DISCOVERY.

The movement of Jupiter’s clouds can be seen when comparing these two global maps, in which Jupiter’s cloud bands are laid out as a flat projection. Scientists produced these maps of Jupiter using Hubble Space Telescope observations for the Outer Planet Atmospheres Legacy program taken on January 19, 2015, from 2:00 UT to 12:30 UT and from 15:00 UT to 23:40 UT. In Jupiter’s North Equatorial Belt, Hubble imaged an elusive wave that had been spotted on the planet only once before, decades earlier, by Voyager 2. In Voyager’s images, the wave is barely visible, and nothing like it was seen again until the recent Hubble observations. In the Hubble images, the wave appears as nearly vertical lines passing through the top of the dark, central cloud belt. The wave was found traveling in a region dotted with cyclones and anticyclones. Similar waves—called baroclinic waves—sometimes appear in Earth’s atmosphere where cyclones are forming. The wave may originate in a clear layer beneath the clouds, only becoming visible when it propagates up into the cloud deck.

For the next couple of days, Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, shines the biggest and brightest it will all year. On April 8, Jupiter will make its closest approach to Earth this year, making now the best time to view the giant planet. It’ll be up all night long! To the naked eye, Jupiter appears as a very bright star, but with a good pair of binoculars or a small telescope you should be able to see details on the planet and spot its four largest moons.NASA’s iconic Hubble Space Telescope will take advantage of this great viewing opportunity and capture new, detailed views of Jupiter. Hubble provides important insight into how the gas giant’s extraordinary features like its famous Great Red Spot – a giant storm that is larger than Earth – is changing. The spot is mysteriously shrinking, and Hubble is one the tools scientists use to monitor those changes. Join NASA scientists on Friday, April 7, from 6 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. ET to show your viewers Hubble’s newest image of Jupiter, talk about how you can spot Jupiter in the night sky and what scientists are learning about a potential water-rich moon of Jupiter.Jupiter and its many moons form a fascinating “mini solar system,” and Hubble’s rich collection of images and data over the last 26 years offer important clues about whether any of Jupiter’s moons – like Europa – harbor liquid water and maybe even life. This data compliments other NASA missions that are looking at the Jovian system. **To book a window contact**Michelle Handleman / michelle.z.handleman@nasa.gov / 301-286-0918HD Satellite Coordinates for G17-K18/LO: Galaxy 17 Ku-band Xp 18 Slot Lower| 91.0 ° W Longitude | DL 12051.0 MHz | Vertical Polarity | QPSK/DVB-S | FEC 3/4 | SR 13.235 Mbps | DR 18.2954 MHz | HD 720p | Format MPEG2 | Chroma Level 4:2:0 | Audio EmbeddedSuggested Questions:1.

B-roll || NASA scientists chatted about the new FRONTIER FIELD image from the Hubble Space Telescope that takes us to the very edge of space and time. This is one of Hubble’s deepest views yet of the universe. There are thousands of galaxies in this image, each teeming with billions of stars, home to many strange distant worlds. Just as Captain Kirk and the crew of the Starship Enterprise have stretched our imagination for the last 50 years, for a quarter century Hubble has turned science fiction into science fact. Hubble’s Frontier Fields program uses the power of massive galaxy clusters deep in space. The gravity of these clusters is so massive that it distorts and magnifies the light around it, allowing us to see the very faint light of the distant galaxies behind it.**** To book a window contact ****Michelle Handleman / michelle.z.handleman@nasa.gov / 301-286-0918Suggested Questions:For more than a quarter century, Hubble has inspired generations of people around the world with its views of the universe.

NASA is sending the Juno spacecraft to peer beneath the cloudy surface of Jupiter. Juno s liquid outer core is thought to give rise to its dynamo and magnetic field. This animation is on a transparent background.

The Hubble Space Telescope provides new maps of Jupiter. || Explore views of Jupiter in this animation produced from observations made using Hubble. || The new maps confirm that Jupiter s Great Red Spot (shown above) continues to shrink and become more circular, as it has been doing for years. || In Jupiter’s North Equatorial Belt, scientists spotted a rare wave in the atmosphere that had been seen there only once before. || This global map of Jupiter was made using multiple images taken by Hubble.
