This NASA JunoCam image shows the enormous cyclones swirling around the Jupiter's south pole from an altitude of 32,000 miles. SwRI scientists helped identify for the first time incredibly powerful polar winds streaming above the clouds and below the planet’s intense aurorae in Jupiter’s middle atmosphere.
