The latest update on the NASA's Juno spacecraft suggests that it will enter the orbit around Jupiter early next month on July 4. Reports hint towards the possibility that once the spacecraft enter the planet, it would help the scientists uncover the truth behind Jupiter's origin and evolution.

Fox News reported that the Juno will try to find out more about Jupiter as to when and how the planet was formed. The NASA reports suggested that the spacecraft will be examining the planet's atmosphere with respect to the amount of water and ammonia, in order to find its evolution history.

Furthermore, NASA revealed that the spacecraft would also examine Jupiter's gravitational and magnetic fields. The main reason behind this is to help the scientists know more about the Jupiter's core, reported Scientific American. It is also reported that NASA is considering the Juno spacecraft's entry into the planet as a crucial one as it will help them to get minor details about the Jupiter's radiation belt as well.

"Throughout the project, including operations, our review process has looked for the likely, the unlikely, and then the very unlikely," said Rick Nybakken, project manager for Juno in a statement, as reported by CS Monitor. "Now we are looking at extremely unlikely events that orbit insertion could throw at us."

SMH reported that in order to capture all the details about the planet, the Juno spacecraft has been equipped with nine instruments with a color camera, JunoCam. The devices have been kept on board to help the spacecraft to capture images of planet's Polar Regions.

Meanwhile, according to the reports from NASA, the Juno spacecraft is 11 million miles away from Jupiter and is travelling at a speed of four miles per second. Space reported that once the spacecraft enters the planet's orbit in next month, it will travel at a speed of 40 miles per second. Additionally, NASA revealed that the Juno spacecraft will turn on its engine for 35 minutes to slow down itself and enter the Jupiter's orbit on July 4.

The Juno spacecraft is reported to complete a journey of around 1.7 billion miles in July. It was launched from Earth on an Atlas V rocket on August 5, 2011.
