This natural-color (visible light) image of Jupiter was captured by Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3 on May 19, 2017. This image was taken to coincide with the Juno spacecraft's sixth flyby of Jupiter (Perijove 6, or PJ 6). Wide-field imagery is used to provide context for Juno's much closer, more detailed observations.

About The Image
Color InfoThese images are a composite of separate exposures acquired by the WFC3 instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope. Several filters were used to sample narrow wavelength ranges. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to each monochromatic (grayscale) image associated with an individual filter. In this case, the assigned colors are: Blue: F395N (395 nm); Green: F502N (502 nm); and Red: F631N (631 nm).
