The Juno mission has captured images of Jupiter's poles, while Cassini got look at the planet's mid-section. Now, an Icelandic software engineer has brought data from the two missions together to ...

The troubled Cassini probe will resume making scientific observations of Jupiter before flying by the giant planet to conduct joint studies with another spacecraft, NASA said Thursday.

Ten years ago, on Dec. 30, 2000, NASA's Cassini spacecraft made its closest approach to Jupiter on its way to orbiting Saturn. The main purpose was to use the gravity of the largest planet in our ...

In 1665, astronomer Giovanni Domenico Cassini observed a massive storm raging on Jupiter. It became known as the Great Red Spot, a swirling oval of clouds that’s almost twice as wide as Earth.

Cassini is a joint project of NASA, the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. But the spacecraft encountered its first major setback Dec. 17 as it approached Jupiter.

Jupiter's iconic Great Red Spot has persisted for at least 190 years and is likely a different spot from the one observed by the astronomer Giovanni Domenico Cassini in 1665, a new study reports.

Jupiter’s iconic Great Red Spot is a massive storm that has swirled within the atmosphere of the largest planet in the solar system for years. But astronomers have debated just how old the vortex ...

Cassini is currently in orbit around Saturn, but the spacecraft flew by Jupiter in 2000. The videos show a line of small, dark, V-shaped features called "chevrons" along one edge of the jet stream.

In the 1660s, Italian astronomer Gian Domenico Cassini discovered something while looking at the planet Jupiter: a massive spot now known as the planet’s signature. Known as the Great Red Spot ...

Jupiter’s striking Great Red Spot has puzzled astronomers for years. Now, they think they know just how old it is and how the cyclone formed in Jupiter’s atmosphere.
