Jovian Auroral Distributions Experiment

Jovian Auroral Distributions Experiment (JADE) is an instrument that detects and measures ions and electrons around the spacecraft.

[2] JADE-E and JADE-I are sensors that are spread out on the spacecraft, and the EBox is located inside the Juno Radiation Vault.

[3] JADE was built by Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), located in the United States in Texas.

[3] The JADE sensors, in addition to other materials, also use a special plastic designed to endure the spaceflight conditions.

[4] By May 2017, some of the first scientific analyses reported that JADE observed plasma coming up from the upper atmosphere of Jupiter into the magnetosphere.
