Juno spacecraft assembly. Technicians monitoring NASA's Juno spacecraft as it is moved by an overhead crane to a rotation stand for centre of gravity, weight and balance testing. Juno was launched on 5th August 2011, on a five-year flight to Jupiter. After arriving in July 2016, it will orbit the planet 32 times over the following year, gathering information about Jupiter's atmosphere, magnetic field, and gravitational field.
