Two more flybys, then it's all over for Juno unless approval is given for an extension.


End of mission (deorbit into Jupiter) - Juno will continue to operate within the current budget plan through July 2018, for a total of 12 science orbits. The team can then propose to extend the mission during the next science review cycle.

Where is Juno?
