About this work
A new, highly detailed map of Jupiter's magnetic field based on data from NASA's Juno spacecraft renders in high resolution a mysterious region of the field nicknamed the Great Blue Spot (GBS), an isolated and intense patch of magnetic flux at the planet's equator. This orthographic plot shows the radial magnetic field from a vantage point above the GBS, compared to zonal winds measured by tracking the movement of surface features.
