Juno and Jupiter

In 2011, NASA launched a probe to Jupiter, which they named Juno. Sidenote: In Roman mythology, Juno was Jupiter's wife. Yes, they sent his wife to check on him.

That probe arrived at Jupiter on July 4. Here's a great GIF that shows how Juno got there.

You can find out more about Juno and see what she sends back here.

  1. Not just that Juno was his wife. Remember also that Ganymede, Io, Europa, and Castillo were his paramours.
