Special thanks to Michigan State University Library’s Sri Pallay who helped created the cover art and Julie Taylor who helped with the branding. The cover is a composite image, derived from data collected by the Jovian Infrared Auroral Mapper (JIRAM) instrument aboard NASA’s Juno mission to Jupiter. The image shows the central cyclone at Jupiter’s north pole and the eight cyclones that encircle it (NASA).
