00:00The gas giant Jupiter has shimmering auroras circling its poles,
00:05and new images from NASA's Juno mission are shining a light on these brilliant displays.
00:10In the auroras, a brief but intense period of brightening sometimes happens in the early morning.
00:16These are called dawn storms, and Juno's images offered a perspective of the storms that scientists had never seen before.
00:24Telescopes on Earth and the Hubble Telescope in space previously spotted Jupiter's dawn storms, but they only captured partial views.
00:33Juno's ultraviolet spectrograph was the first imager to peer down at dawn storms from overhead for eight hours at a time
00:40so that scientists could watch the storms as they formed and grew.
00:44They found that the dawn storms were born in darkness, forming on the planet's nighttime side as isolated glowing spots in auroras.
00:53As Jupiter rotates, the storms travel to the daytime side and glow even brighter, spewing up to thousands of gigawatts of ultraviolet light into space.
01:03And at their brightest, dawn storms produce at least ten times more energy than Jupiter's typical auroras do.
