A NASA spacecraft has sent back the first pictures since arriving at Jupiter. An image released Tuesday shows Jupiter surrounded by three of its four largest moons. The picture was taken on Saturday when the Juno spacecraft was circling 3 million miles away. Even at that distance, Jupiter's Great Red Spot a centuries-old atmospheric storm was visible. (AP)

The image was taken on July 10 when the spacecraft was 4.3 million km from Jupiter on the outbound leg of its initial 53.5-day capture orbit. The colour image shows atmospheric features on Jupiter, including the famous Great Red Spot, and three of the massive planet's four largest moons — Io, Europa and Ganymede, from left to right in the image.

The first high-resolution images of the planet will be taken on August 27 when Juno makes its next close pass to Jupiter. During its mission of exploration, Juno will circle the Jovian world 37 times, soaring low over the planet's cloud tops — as close as about 4,100 km. During these flybys, Juno will probe beneath the obscuring cloud cover of Jupiter and study its auroras to learn more about the planet's origins, structure, atmosphere and magnetosphere. (AP)
