An artist named Mik Petter created vibrant digital artwork with data from the JunoCam imager on NASA’s Juno spacecraft. The artwork uses fractals, the mathematical formulas, to create art with an endless variety of form, detail, color, and light. The use of brightly colored fractals depicts the swirling atmospheric zones in and around the Great Red Spot. The original JunoCam image was captured by the Juno spacecraft on July 10, 2017, at 10:10 p.m. EDT. NASA’s Juno spacecraft snapped the image from about 8,648 miles above the tops of the clouds of the planet. Apart from this piece of art, there are several stunning images of Jupiter in the JunoCam gallery.
