Planet Jupiter today it has a world premiere thanks to a video clip that premieres a series of images that only ESA researchers have seen until now. More precisely, those from ESA have published a video clip that shows us for the first time what the planet Jupiter looks like if it is filmed from Mars, something that no one has had the opportunity to see beyond the research laboratories where these images end up.
Planet Jupiter appears in the images filmed by the European Space Agency's Mars Express near Saturn, and as you can see, the movement of the planets through the solar system is also presented. The planet Jupiter, and Saturn, are closer to Mars than to the Earth, so that they can be seen much better there, and of course they move much faster than in the case of tracking from the Earth, these images show us something that we no longer have seen so far.
Planet Jupiter: INCREDIBLE Video with New Images in the PREMIERE
Planet Jupiter is now recorded in these images thanks to the many calibrations that ESA is doing for the camera on Mars Express, that spacecraft has been near Mars for more than 17 years, so it still needs to be checked. You can see that the images were recorded on March 21, but ESA published them only now because it analyzed and processed them, and so we can see for the first time what the planet Jupiter looks like when it is seen from so far away.
The gas giants as seen from Mars!
As part of geometric calibrations, some days ago our @esamarswebcam on Mars Express observed Jupiter and Saturn in conjunction.

Planet Jupiter it is monitored by other spaceships sent nearby by those from NASA, but images like the ones now have not been published by any space agency. The planet Jupiter has a lot of published images from its vicinity, from Earth, but images like the ones above are very rare, and they show us how these planets are seen even from, or nearby, others that are far away.
Planet Jupiter it could have published images of this kind in the not too distant future, but for now it is not known what exactly ESA has in preparation, and it has not yet published for us.
