These images of Jupiter moon Amalthea were taken with NASA Galileo and Voyager spacecraft. Amalthea is almost pure water ice, hinting that it may not have formed where it now orbits.

A team of astronomers has made the first detection ever of an organic molecule in the atmosphere of a Jupiter-sized planet orbiting another star. The breakthrough was made with NASA Hubble Space Telescope.
Ver en NASA ↗This is a montage of planetary images taken by spacecraft managed by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, CA. Included are from top to bottom images of Mercury, Venus, Earth and Moon, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
Ver en NASA ↗This image of Loki Patera on Jupiter volcanic moon Io shows data taken by the near-infrared mapping spectrometer onboard NASA Galileo spacecraft during its Io flyby on Oct. 10, 1999.
Ver en NASA ↗The Prometheus region of Jupiter moon Io was imaged by NASA Galileo spacecraft in 1999. The maps made from spectrometer data show the interplay between hot silicates on the surface and sulfur dioxide frost.
Ver en NASA ↗This image of Jupiter icy satellite Europa shows surface features such as domes and ridges, as well as a region of disrupted terrain including crustal plates which are thought to have broken apart and rafted into new positions.
Ver en NASA ↗Technicians installed the special radiation vault for NASA Juno spacecraft on the propulsion module. The radiation vault has titanium walls to protect the spacecraft electronic brain and heart from Jupiter harsh radiation environment.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer will uncover many failed stars, or brown dwarfs, in infrared light. This diagram shows a brown dwarf in relation to Earth, Jupiter, a low-mass star and the sun.
Ver en NASA ↗Jupiter moon Europa, as seen in this image taken June 27, 1996 by NASA Galileo spacecraft, displays features in some areas resembling ice floes seen in Earth polar seas.
Ver en NASA ↗During its close flyby of Earth, NASA Jupiter-bound Juno spacecraft listened for a coordinated, global transmission from amateur radio operators using its radio and plasma wave science instrument, known as Waves.
Ver en NASA ↗This is a montage of planetary images taken by spacecraft managed by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, CA. Included are from top to bottom images of Mercury, Venus, Earth and Moon, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
Ver en NASA ↗This artist concept, a cutaway view of Jupiter moon Callisto, is based on recent data from NASA Galileo spacecraft which indicates a salty ocean may lie beneath Callisto icy crust.
Ver en NASA ↗This beautiful image of the crescents of volcanic Io and more sedate Europa is a combination of two New Horizons images taken March 2, 2007, about two days after New Horizons made its closest approach to Jupiter.
Ver en NASA ↗This artist concept, based on spectral observations from NASA Hubble Space Telescope and Spitzer Space Telescope, shows a cloudy Jupiter-like planet that orbits very close to its fiery hot star.
Ver en NASA ↗Assembly began April 1, 2010, for NASA Juno spacecraft. Workers at Lockheed Martin Space Systems in Denver, Colorado are moving into place the vault that will protect the spacecraft sensitive electronics from Jupiter intense radiation belts.
Ver en NASA ↗Ancient impact craters shown in this image of Jupiter moon Ganymede taken by NASA Galileo spacecraft testify to the great age of the terrain, dating back several billion years.
Ver en NASA ↗High temperatures observed by NASA Galileo spacecraft along the western edge of the Loki volcano on Jupiter moon Io may indicate freshly exposed material at the shore of a lava lake during an Oct. 16, 2001 flyby of Io.
Ver en NASA ↗This is a frame from an animation of a rotating globe of Jupiter moon Ganymede, with a geologic map superimposed over a global color mosaic, incorporating the best available imagery from NASA Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft, and Galileo spacecraft.
Ver en NASA ↗NASA Cassini spacecraft snapped this image during the spacecraft closest flyby of Saturn moon Helene, on March 3, 2010. Helene is a Trojan moon of Dione, named for the Trojan asteroids that orbit ahead of and behind Jupiter.
Ver en NASA ↗This artist conception compares the KOI-961 planetary system to Jupiter and the largest four of its many moons. The KOI-961 planetary system hosts the three smallest planets known to orbit a star beyond our sun.
Ver en NASA ↗This is an artist concept of a hypothetical 10-million-year-old star system. The bright blur at the center is a star much like our sun. The other orb in the image is a gas-giant planet like Jupiter.
Ver en NASA ↗This enhanced-color view obtained on September 25, 1998 from NASA Galileo spacecraft shows an intricate pattern of linear fractures on the icy surface of Jupiter moon Europa.
Ver en NASA ↗This color composite view combines violet, green, and infrared images of Jupiter intriguing moon, Europa, for a view of the moon in natural color left and in enhanced color designed to bring out subtle color differences in the surface right.
Ver en NASA ↗This artist concept, based on data from NASA Kepler mission and ground-based telescopes, depicts an itsy bitsy planetary system -- so compact, in fact, that it more like Jupiter and its moons than a star and its planets.
