Jupiter's southern hemisphere, as seen by NASA's Juno spacecraft. In a new study, NASA's NuSTAR space telescope spots the highest-energy light from Jupiter.NASA has detected the most energetic light ever seen on Jupiter and, in the process, solved a 30-year-old mystery.
In a new study, researchers using NASA's Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array space observatory were able to spot the highest-energy light ever seen on. The light, which is X-ray radiation, is also the highest-energy light ever seen on a planet in our solar system other than Earth. But this finding isn't just an incredible observation; it's also helping scientists to understand why NASA's Ulysses sun-studying mission mysteriously saw no X-rays from Jupiter when it flew by the planet in 1992.This is not the first time that X-rays have been spotted at Jupiter; NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory as well as the European Space Agency's XMM-Newton observatory have both observed low-energy X-rays coming from auroras on the giant planet.
Jupiter's auroras, which occur at the planet's north and south poles, are created by ions coming from the planet's
