NASA Staff Celebrate as Juno Successfully Enters Jupiter's Orbit

Description

Staff at NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasadena, California waited with bated breath as their latest project entered the make or break phase. The agency's latest spaceraft, called Juno after the wife of Jupiter, the Roman king of the gods, blasted off from Cape Canaveral in 2011 and traveled over 400 million miles through our solar system to reach its final destination, the largest planet in our solar neighborhood, Jupiter.
