NASA Software engineer Kevin M Gill has used data from the organisation's Juno Jupiter spacecraft to create a colour-enhanced image of the planet that some have compared to Van Gogh, Monet and Pollock. The JunoCam aboard the orbiter captured the image of Jupiter's jet stream region known as 'Jet N6' on June 2018 from roughly 8,000 miles above the planet's atmosphere. Gill's processed image highlights Jupiter's swirling clouds in a way that drew comparisons to famous artists from Twitter users. NASA released a similar image in 12 February which demonstrated the "chaotic and turbulent" weather of the gas giant.
