I guess Juno doesn't have any kind of camera on board, at least nothing I've read says it does. I love the pictures as much or more as some of the new data.
I sat up and watched the live stream last night..All the video was switched off. We won't see the good stuff till sometime in August.
That's pretty much what happened with Pluto too, it took a while for good stuff to start coming in.
Can't wait to see the pics that come back, my six year old is excited.
The six year old I still am is very excited indeed! When I was a kid,me and a friend,in our games,lived on Jupiter.
