There is liquid water hidden under Jupiter's great red spot. What did Juno find here?

As one of the eight planets in the solar system, the importance of Jupiter is self-evident, and it is also the largest planet in the solar system, and its gravity cannot be underestimated. Scientists believe that Jupiter has been silently protecting the earth, and countless asteroids have passed us by because of Jupiter's gravity, so human beings have a safe development environment. On this basis, scientists have been hoping to get more information about the birth of life from Jupiter and try to understand the formation process of Jupiter's Great Red Spot, so Juno began a long exploration journey with human curiosity.

Before that, most people always thought that there might be liquid water on the surface of Mars, and it would be the main target planet for human beings to move into space in the future. However, recent research shows that there is no liquid water on the surface of Mars, and only a small amount of water ice exists in the polar regions, so melting them is a huge problem. However, scientists have not given up. They try to use advanced technology to melt water ice and provide support for human life in space. Even some scientists think that there may be liquid water inside Mars, but so far they have found nothing. They must move their targets to detect other planets in the solar system that may have liquid water. It is in this background that Jupiter enters people's field of vision.

Juno sent back a lot of data during his exploration of Jupiter. Scientists were surprised to find that there may be liquid water in Jupiter's Great Red Spot. As we all know, Jupiter is a gaseous planet full of hydrogen and helium, and the possibility of forming liquid water is very small. However, this discovery once again subverts people's cognition.

Scientists say that if there is liquid water in the Great Red Spot, there should be oxygen on the surface of Jupiter. We need to further explore whether there will be life here. However, according to related research, Jupiter rotates very fast and is far from the sun. The temperature here is much lower than we thought, so there is unlikely to be life. Of course, liquid water and oxygen are not necessarily necessary for the birth of life. There are special creatures in many extreme environments, so we can't deny the possibility that Jupiter breeds life. However, the possibility of human migration to Jupiter is almost zero. Due to irreversible factors such as long distance and bad environment, human beings can go to other planets to find hope, not necessarily limited to the solar system.

In short, Juno's mission on Jupiter's surface is still going on, and more aspects need to be explored in the future. Only by continuously developing science and technology can we find more clues and lay the foundation for exploring the birth and evolution of life.
