Dear colleagues, the last Planetary Science Seminar for this academic
year will take place this year with our AOS colleague, Professor Richard
Thorne, bringing us up to date on the JUNO mission which is enroute to
Jupiter. Join us at noon in 3853 Slichter Hall to learn how this mission
is progressing. Best wishes, WIN

> Abstract.
>
> On July 5 , 2016 after a five year cruise, JUNO will be inserted into
> orbit around Jupiter. Jupiter is by far the largest planet in our
> solar system and has remained virtually unchanged since it first
> formed. Consequently, Jupiter contains important clues to how the
> solar system formed. The primary science objective of this second NASA
> "New Frontiersâ mission is to measure the Oxygen (Water) abundance
> in the deep atmosphere, to determine whether Jupiter has a substantial
> core composed of heavy elements, and to understand the dynamo process
> which generates Jupitersâs internal magnetic field. To accomplish
> these objectives JUNO will be placed into a polar orbit, which
> minimizes radiation exposure and allows, us over 30 science orbits,
> to make precise measurements of the internal gravity and magnetic
> field, and the composition of the deep atmosphere. These science
> orbits pass through the auroral flux tubes and as a secondary science
> objective we will explore the process responsible for the Jovian
> aurora. This talk will describe the basic measurements taken on JUNO
> and describe how these can be used to better understand the process
> that occurred during the formation of the solar system.
