Description
"Fabergé Jupiter"
This digitally altered artwork is derived from the NASA/JPL/Caltech image "Exotic Marble" released 12 December 2019, itself a stylized version of Jupiter. Other than some minor color changes and enhancement of detail, it is otherwise a still-accurate depiction of this amazing planet in all its glory. The NASA webpage and commentary about the original image are given below:
"A mind of limits, a camera of thoughts" is the name of this contribution from citizen scientist Prateek Sarpal. Jupiter inspires artists and scientists with its beauty. In this image, south is up, and the enhanced color evokes an exotic marble and childhood joy.
The original image was captured by JunoCam, the camera on NASA's Juno mission in orbit around Jupiter. This image was taken on Juno's 22nd close pass by Jupiter on Sept. 12, 2019.
JunoCam's raw images are available for the public to peruse and process into image products at
