We’re pleased to share a first taste of #ESAJuice science data! 🤩
The magnetometer boom (J-MAG) recorded the change in magnetic field as it deployed.
J-MAG will help characterise Jupiter & Ganymede's magnetic fields, and the moons' oceans.

ALT A graph with magnetic field in nT on the y-axis and time in UTC on the x-axis. Two lines trace the data collected by two different sensors on the magnetometer boom. The lines are horizontal and one above the other in the first instance, before deployment of the boom. During and after the deployment the lines meet and trend towards zero.
