After almost a five-year journey to the largest planet of the Solar system, Juno — a NASA spacecraft, launched August 5, 2011, successfully entered the orbit of Jupiter for a 35-minute maneuver, during which it slowed down and came under the influence of Jupiter’s gravitational field. During the maneuver, the probe flew on autopilot, and command center could communicate with the device only with simple signals, since the main antenna was not directed at Earth.
Over the next few months, Juno will make a final system test and calibration of scientific instruments. The main purpose of the probe is to understand the origin and evolution of Jupiter. With a range of nine scientific instruments, Juno will investigate the planet’s core, map Jupiter’s magnetic field, measure the amount of water and ammonia in the atmosphere and observe the planet’s auroras. The mission will also allow to take a giant step forward in our understanding of how giant planets form and their role in the creation of the rest of the Solar system. As the main example of a giant planet, Jupiter can also provide important knowledge for understanding the planetary systems around discovered stars.
Juno was the second probe on Jupiter’s orbit after Galileo, which was in the planet’s orbit from 1995 to 2003. Juno spacecraft took five years to reach Jupiter. It is planned that the mission of the automatic interplanetary station will last year and a half, and then it will self-destruct by burning in the atmosphere.
Oh cool a quasar. Those things are really fascinating Imo, they are basically blackholes surrounded by super hot gas spinning and falling into it. I don’t remember what the giant lazors are, tho.
Those are Jets fun stuff  can be used as galactic lazors to blow planets out of the orbit and turn them back to the stage of formation (100% lava!)
Yeah, I read somewhere that a Quasar could just vaporize Earth from 3 light years of distance.
almost thought thats actually the picture of a galaxy, displaying it’s radiation ”) or some natural lazor 
I still find Orbits more interesting, also because chewing gum is good for halitosis.

Well, a Quasar is kinda a galaxy. In fact, they are called “active galaxy cores”. Most of the galaxies have in their center a supermassive black hole, and in some cases (often after 2 galaxies merge together) very compact clouds of gas start falling into it. All the atoms start bumping into each other, heating up and transforming into plasma. Around them there are still lots of stars, but they are almost undetectable because their luminosity is much, much lower compared to the Quasar’s.
In reality, all the quasars observed are incredibly far away (billions of light years). Because of this, this kind of celestial body is extremely ancient (most of them formed around 12 billions years ago), and probably very few of them are still active.
