BOB HIRSHON (host):

Artistic images of Jupiter.  I’m Bob Hirshon and this is Science Update.

NASA’s Juno probe is sending back incredible images of Jupiter, and planetary scientist Candice Hansen-Koharcheck of the Planetary Science Institute says NASA is encouraging the public to crop, process and enhance them.

CANDICE HANSEN-KOHARCHECK (Planetary Science Institute):

And we have gotten the most amazing pictures ranging all the way from scientific quality to just whimsical works of art.

HIRSHON:

Despite the processing, she says the atmospheric features hightlighted are real, and help point out areas of interest for scientists.

HANSON-KOHARCHECK:

These wonderful swirls and turbulence and storms — that’s Jupiter. That’s not our amateurs making things up.

HIRSHON:

We’ve got a link to the gallery at scienceupdate.com in case you’d like check out the images, or even create some of your own. I’m Bob Hirshon, for AAAS, the science society.
