Juno Gets Glimpse Of Jupiter

Last night a NASA satellite came closer to Jupiter than any other spacecraft ever has. The spacecraft, known as Juno, hovered over the gas giant's famous Great Red Spot around 10 p.m. last night.

Researchers are hoping Juno will send back images that will give insight into the composition of the planet and its massive storm.
