NASA's Juno Spacecraft Flyby Animations of Ganymede and Jupiter

Last month on June 7, 2021, NASA's Juno spacecraft flew over Ganymede, the ice-encrusted moon of Jupiter. Then, a day later, the spacecraft made another flyby of the gas giant planet.

The spacecraft beamed back fantastic images that NASA then orthographically projected onto a digital sphere to create this gorgeous and mesmerizing animated flyby.
