NASA releases slick 360-degree trailer for its Juno mission to Jupiter

NASA's Juno spacecraft will enter into orbit with the massive planet Jupiter on July 4, in a mission that scientists hope will shed light on the early origins of our home planet.  To raise awareness of the event — which Mashable will be covering from mission control at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory — NASA released a slick, 360-degree video trailer on Thursday.  SEE ALSO: See Jupiter's stunning auroras in these new photos from NASA The narrated video explains the fact that the spacecraft will encounter an exceptionally hostile environment once it gets close to the gas giant, given the high amounts of radiation emanating from the planet.  Sadly, for Juno, this is a suicide mission, as the radiation will destroy the spacecraft's instrumentation after about 20 months in orbit.    Bon Jovi's 'You Give Love A Bad Name' gets a vintage blues remake Alligator spotted scaling a barbed wire fence at Florida golf course Be a human beach burrito with this stunning tortilla towel It's Bryan Cranston versus James Franco in new comedy 'Why Him?'
