Watch: NASA's next Jupiter mission trailer looks like a sci-fi blockbuster!

The mission that will give us our first close look at Jupiter, now has a fitting trailer.

NASA's Juno Spacecraft which was launched in 2011, to get into Jupiter's orbit and get closer than no shuttle has ever been, is scheduled to make it into the orbit of the planet by July 4.

Juno has been designed to peer into Jupiter's atmosphere and magnetosphere and investigate.

However, it is not going to be easy. Owing to Jupiter's mass, meteors, rock and ice masses are catapulted into space by the planet's gravity and rotation. Getting into the orbit, known as the 'Jupiter Orbit Insertion', will be the toughest move for the spacecraft.

But before all this happened, the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory released this incredible trailer explaining the process and why it might be difficult for Juno.

This trailer is even good competition to many new-age sci-fi films!
