A 3D conversion of Björn Jónsson processing of NASA’s Juno data from Sept 16, 2020. By using the luminance of the textured clouds to displace darker areas further back and bright areas closer to the viewer, the surface of Jupiter comes alive in spectacular fashion. You’ll need to use cross-eyes to see this properly, but if you cannot a red-cyan version is included for use with 3D glasses.
