We kinda wish this was gonna be a movie, because it looks sick.

Donโ€™t forget, Jupiterโ€™s mass is two and a half times that of all the other planets in the Solar System combined.

Also, Jupiter is Earthโ€™s protector.  The majority of Earth bound asteroids are caught by Jupiterโ€™s gravity and slung shot out into deep space.  Life on Earth would likely not be possible without Jupiter.

โ€œSecrets lie deep within Jupiter, shrouded in the solar systemโ€™s strongest magnetic field and most lethal radiation belts. On July 4, 2016, NASAโ€™s Juno spacecraft will plunge into uncharted territory, entering orbit around the gas giant and passing closer than any spacecraft before. Juno will see Jupiter for what it really is, but first it must pass the trial of orbit insertion. For more information: http://www.nasa.gov/juno and http://missionjuno.swri.eduโ€ โ€“ NASA
