I got nothin'

Astronomy Picture of the Day June 10, 2019
I have absolutely nothing to talk about today, so I'm heading out to Jupiter to see what's going on out there. As some of you are aware, NASA has a robotic spacecraft that is circling Jupiter and taking pictures that we've never seen before. As that APOD link (under the picture) tells us, that black spot is something, but nobody knows what it is.
The featured image was captured last month while Juno passed only about 15,000 kilometers above Jupiter's cloud tops. The next close pass of Juno near Jupiter will be in July.
I have been fascinated with Jupiter and its beauty for many years and have been thrilled with the pictures Juno has been able to capture. This one is, well, out of this world.
