Re: Tmcom Postings

For Tmcom re placement of Falling into Jupiter YouTube link ...

Your choice of where to put this interesting work seems (to me at least) about right...

The probe you've shown us is a "virtual" one, based upon what appear to be Real Universe observations and deductions about what a descent into Jupiter might be like.

I asked Google to remind me of probes that might have entered Jupiter's atmosphere, and it found this:

In Depth: Galileo Jupiter Atmospheric Probe
NASA's Galileo mission to Jupiter – one of the agency's most ambitious deep space missions –carried a 743-pound (337-kilogram) probe designed to return data as it entered the Jovian atmosphere by parachute.

It is possible that data from the Galileo probe helped the author of the simulation you showed us.

If you have time and the question is of interest, please correspond with the author of the work to see what Real Universe data might have informed the creative work.
