Juno, arriving at Jupiter soon.

A NASA press meeting from June, explaining much of what is expected.

 
Audio conversion of electrical activity of Jupiter's aurora emissions.

 
Close approach tomorrow (under the circumstances).

At the time of closest approach (called perijove), Juno will be about 2,580 miles (4,150 kilometers) above the gas giant's roiling cloud tops and traveling at a speed of about 129,000 mph (57.8 kilometers per second) relative to the planet. Seven of Juno's eight science instruments will be energized and collecting data during the flyby.
