OSIRIS-REx takes its first image of Jupiter
(PHYSorg.com Space & Earth)
 


This magnified, cropped image showing Jupiter and three of its moons was taken by NASA`s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft`s MapCam instrument during optical navigation testing for the mission`s Earth-Trojan Asteroid Search. The image shows Jupiter in the center, the moon Callisto to the left and the moons Io and Europa to the right. Ganymede, Jupiter`s fourth moon, is also present in the image, but is not visible as it is crossing in front of the planet.
