Jupiter Observation Campaign - Citizen Science At The Outer Planets: A Progress Report

Amateur astronomers and astrophotographers diligently image Mars, Saturn and Jupiter in amazing detail. They often capture first views of storms on Saturn, impacts on Jupiter and changes in the planet's atmospheres. Many of the worldwide cadre of imagers share their images with each other and with planetary scientists. This new Jupiter focused citizen science program seeks to collect images and sort them into categories useful to scientists. In doing so, it provides a larger population of amateur astronomers with the opportunity to contribute their observations to NASA's JUNO Mission.
