Description

Juno has finally seen Jupiter’s core, and it’s not what we expected.

Forget everything you thought you knew about Jupiter’s core. Scientists long debated whether our solar system’s largest planet had a dense, solid heart, or no core at all. But now, data from NASA’s Juno probe has revealed an answer no one expected: the core is ‘fuzzy’. This massive discovery completely upends all our current theories on how Jupiter, and every other gas giant, formed and evolved. Join us as we explore the data that changed everything.
