Could someone please enlighten me as to what Galileo is expected to measure as it plummets toward Jupiter? Also isn't the atmosphere of Jupiter disturbed by high winds and lightening? How will the craft maintain stability and radio communication with the orbiter ? Ken Cochran hou5d!kwmc

Regarding Ken Cochran's request for info on the Galileo mission, the feature article in the August SKY & TELESCOPE covers the mission quite well. You'll find details of the orbiter and probe, the scientific instrumentation, mission objectives and time tables. Pat McNamara Tektronix, Inc.
