NASA's Juno space exploring robot is solar-powered

NASA might be done with the Space Shuttle, but that doesn't mean the national space agency has given up on exploring those orbs we call planets that lie yonder. No sir, they in fact have a mission to Jupiter down the road, sending a solar-powered, windmill-shaped spacecraft known as Juno – making it the most distant probe to date that receives its electrical sustenance from the glowing ball of fire that we call the sun. Juno will sport a trio of tractor-trailer-size solar panels which hopefully, will help it sail towards the largest planet in our Solar System across 2 billion miles.
