“This video shows Juno’s trajectory from Perijove 6, and is based on work by Gerald Eichstädt, compiled and edited by Seán Doran. “This is real imagery projected along orbit trajectory,” Doran explained on Twitter.”

You don’t need color images when the mission’s main goals are to map Jupiter’s magnetic and gravity fields, determine the planet’s internal composition, and explore the magnetosphere.

No, but crisp color images help sell further space exploration.

If you have a clear sky, Jupiter is not too far from the moon tonight. Saturn is rising if you’re in the eastern time zone.

Hazy skies here - nothing good comes from hazy skies.

Pretty good considering visual images aren’t part of Juno’s primary mission. The camera for visible images is relatively low quality and is there mainly for public relations.
