UV and X-ray Emanations

Hubble Space Telescope ultraviolet observations show ultraviolet flaring.


Chandra's X-ray image of Jupiter shows bright polar caps associated with auroral activity on Jupiter.

Here is a Hubble ultraviolet image of Jupiter's auroral emissions.




In this image are visible the uv emissions (blue) captured by Hubble overlaid with the x-ray emanations (red) by Chandra.
