https://peertube.dngr.us/videos/watch/9050a842-626b-4bd0-a017-09a55b4440f7 A brief video consisting of color computer graphics, with narration summarizing what was known about the magnetic field of Jupiter as of 1983. Includes information about the upcoming Galileo spacecraft's mission to study the magnetosphere in greater detail. Classical music (from Holst's The Planets ) plays in the background. Another description, from the computer science technical report Simulating the Dynamics of the Dancing Lights (U. Waterloo): Blinn and Wolf produced a film in 1983 entitled “Jupiter’s Magnetosphere: The Movie”. In this film representations of spacecraft observations as well as analytic models of the plasma and magnetic fields in the Jovian system were employed to visualize the morphology and dynamical structure of Jupiter’s magnetosphere. To the best of our knowledge this film represents the first use of a plasma model by the graphics community. Produced by the NASA/JPL Computer Graphics Laboratory. This NTSC VHS dub is from the personal collection of solar physicist Ted Speiser (1934–2016). It was digitized to Lagarith AVI and transcoded to H.264 MP4 in 2020.
