Video Shows Incredible 3D Animation of Jupiter's "Frosted Cupcake" Clouds - NDTV
Researchers used JunoCam data to build digital elevation maps of cloud tops.
A group of scientists recently used NASA's Juno spacecraft to produce stunning 3D renders to simulate how Jupiter's raging storms would appear from space."This computer animation shows a flight over such a landscape for processed, red-filtered image data collected by JunoCam, the wide-angle visible light imager of NASA's Juno spacecraft, during her 43rd close Jupiter flyby," the caption of the post read. .The researchers used JunoCam data to build digital elevation maps of cloud tops. .
Mr Eichstadt also explained that this latest method has now opened up new opportunities to derive 3D elevation models of Jupiter's cloud tops.
