Think Tank
This section will be a bit more wonky. You are invited to see the science sausage-making in action. There will be links to engineering files that we call kernels. There will be discussion threads on science topics we think can be addressed by particular images. You will see maps that connect features in JunoCam images to the historical record and context.
If you would like to be involved in this group please contact us.

Final PJ27 Predictor Map
Final amateur map (observations from late May) has been rolled forward to June 2 Perijove 27
High Altitude Hazes
High altitude hazes are imaged in the methane and RGB filters. This thread is general - methane images are discussed in a separate thread.
Circumpolar Cyclones (CPC)
Short- and long-term observation of circum-polar cyclones, together with according interpretations and analysis.
APO-22 Maneuver
Command audio from Juno's apoapsis maneuver to jump Jupiter's shadow.
Io Images
As we acquire images of Io they will be posted here with approximate geometric information. Images are processed by citizen scientists.
Perijove 13
At PJ13, as at PJ11, the spacecraft was pointed towards the Sun and Earth so the images of low latitudes were oblique. They included panoramic views of several interesting features.
Perijove 12
This thread will discuss Perijove-12 images. Perijove 12 was very rewarding: GRS, NN-WS-4, CPCs, FFRs, popup clouds, mesoscale waves, high phase angle observations of hazes, methane band images and an image stack, animations,...

Perijove 20
Here is a report on the JunoCam images at PJ20.
Perijove 17
Here is a report on the JunoCam images at PJ17
PJ9 Images
PJ9 images are discussed in this thread.
Perijove 23
Report on PJ23 (2019 Nov.3)
Perijove 18
Here is a report on the JunoCam images at PJ18.
Perijove 11
Discussion of results from JunoCam around the PJ11 close approach
Perijove 25
Report on the PJ25 images from JunoCam.
Perijove 15
Comments on the images from Perijove 15 (2018 Sep.7)
PJ14 Image analysis
On PJ14 the spacecraft orbit continues its evolution, bringing the subspacecraft latitude at perijove northward and the subs/c longitude closer to the subsolar longitude
Methane images
Images taken through the narrow-band methane filter show high altitude hazes and other interesting structure that gives us a 3-dimensional picture of Jupiter's cloudtops.
PJ1 images
Key products from the PJ1 pass will be posted and analyzed here.
Perijove 24 (2019 Dec.26)
Report on JunoCam images at PJ24.
