Original Title: When Juno ends its mission, and it crashes into Jupiter’s atmosphere, will it be able to get any final pictures of the clouds up close from an almost level position? Close enough to see the color of the planet’s sky?


Basically, I’m wondering if we will get to see a “street level view” of this world of clouds? At the very least, will we get close enough to see them at an angle instead of a top down view? Or will the radiation kill the cameras before it gets close enough? What is the closest distance from which we will get to see the clouds? I think it would be a great way to inspire the public to show the crazy alien landscapes (or cloudscapes) that exist in the outer solar system.
