   Explanation: In digital brush strokes, Jupiter's signature atmospheric
   bands and vortices were used to form this interplanetary
   post-impressionist work of art. The creative image from citizen
   scientist Rick Lundh uses data from the Juno spacecraft's JunoCam. To
   paint on the digital canvas, a JunoCam image with contrasting light and
   dark tones was chosen for processing and an oil-painting software
   filter applied. The image data was captured during perijove 10. That
   was Juno's December 16, 2017 close encounter with the solar system's
   ruling gas giant. At the time the spacecraft was cruising about 13,000
   kilometers above northern Jovian cloud tops. Now in an extended
   mission, Juno has explored Jupiter and its moons since entering orbit
   around Jupiter in July of 2016.
