NASA's ''[[Juno (spacecraft)|Juno]]'' mission arrived at Jupiter on July 4, 2016, with the goal of studying the planet in detail from a [[polar orbit]]. The spacecraft was originally intended to orbit Jupiter thirty-seven times over a period of twenty months.<ref name="NYT-20160705" /><ref>{{cite web | first=Anthony | last=Goodeill | date=March 31, 2008 | url=http://newfrontiers.nasa.gov/missions_juno.html | title=New Frontiers – Missions – Juno | publisher=NASA | access-date=January 2, 2007 | url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070203235637/http://newfrontiers.nasa.gov/missions_juno.html | archive-date=February 3, 2007 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web
