Jupiter
NASA's Juno spacecraft has revealed that lightning in Jupiter's storms is at least 100 times more powerful than on Earth, based on data from 2021 and 2022. The findings, published on March 20 in AGU Advances, come as the mission's future hangs in balance due to budget constraints. NASA officials are weighing whether to extend operations amid funding shortfalls.

An international team of scientists has modeled how complex organic molecules, essential for biology, could have been incorporated into Jupiter's largest moons during their formation. The research suggests these building blocks of life were delivered from the early solar system's gas and dust disk without significant chemical alteration. The findings appear in two recent scientific papers.
