However, the dimensions of Amalathia are quite simple. Its long X is extending 250 kilometers, while the most narrow point extends only 128 kilometers. Scientists believe that this moon of Jupiter resembles potatoes and is like a pile of debris rather than a solid rock.
Juno Spacecraft captured Amalathia on 7 March. Then he was passing by the 59th time from Jupiter. It can be seen in the picture that in front of Brihasapati, his moon looks just a black point. According to the report, Amalathia was about 1 lakh 81 thousand km above the clouds of Jupiter.
The Great Red spot with which it was spotted is a huge antisiclonic storm on Jupiter and holds the area of 12,500 km. Amalathia takes the time of Jupiter very fast. It takes only 0.5 Earth days to roam around your planet once.
Scientists believe mysterious
Scientists consider Amalathia to be mysterious mystery. They feel that this moon emits more heat than the heat received from the Sun. It is not yet known from where the heat is coming from. One theory is that the heat comes from the diurect and indirectly from Brihaspati.
