Published on Dec 10, 2013 During its close flyby of Earth, NASA's Jupiter-bound Juno spacecraft listened for a communication from amateur radio operators transmitting from locations around the world. This video clip depicts results, the "dits" and the "dahs," of this high-flying social experiment. The full image caption for this movie is available at: http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/cata...
