Planets, like the Earth, could potentially serve as giant telescopes - as explored in our last video (https://youtu.be/jgOTZe07eHA). This happens because the atmosphere refracts light and so bends it into a focus, like a huge spherical lens. Parabolic dishes on Earth can be sued as both telescopes and antennae, and so in the same way - could planets be used as antennae? Today we explore the possibility of using the Jupiter as a giant antennae, perhaps serving as the basis for an interplanetary internet, and how Juno could very well test the idea today.

Written and Presented by Professor David Kipping
