Ingredients
• 2 cups cooked sushi rice, divided
• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• Pinch of salt
• 1 large (28-ounce) can or round
food mold
• 2 avocados, peeled and chopped,
divided
• 1 cup cucumber, peeled and
chopped, divided
• 2 cups Louis Kemp Crab Delights
surimi seafood, chopped, divided
• 2 teaspoons lemon, finely
chopped, divided

1. Prepare rice according to package instructions.
2. Mix together rice vinegar, sugar and salt, and pour over cooked rice. Gently toss to coat.
3. Prepare can by removing contents, removing top and bottom with can opener then
cleaning thoroughly. Round food mold will also work.
4. Place can upright on flat plate and hold firmly in place while layering ingredients.
5. Press 1/2 cup cooked rice in bottom of can. Follow with 1/2 cup avocado, 1/4 cup chopped
cucumber, 1/2 cup chopped surimi seafood and 1/2 teaspoon chopped lemon. Use
back of a spoon to firmly press ingredients down to ensure sushi stack stays together.
6. Top with 1 teaspoon sesame seeds and 1 sheet of seaweed.
7. Gently pull can up to remove.
8. Repeat process to create three more sushi stacks.
9. To prepare spicy sauce, mix mayo, Sriracha and soy sauce until incorporated.
10. Serve sushi stacks with drizzle of spicy sauce, if desired, and soy sauce.

NASA’s Juno Mission Provides Infrared Tour of Jupiter’s North Pole
This infrared 3-D image of Jupiter’s north pole was derived from data collected by the Jovian Infrared Auroral Mapper (JIRAM) instrument
aboard NASA’s Juno spacecraft. Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/ASI/INAF/JIRAM.

Scientists working on NASA’s Juno
mission to Jupiter shared a 3-D infrared
movie depicting densely packed cyclones
and anticyclones that permeate the planet’s
polar regions, and the first detailed view of
a dynamo, or engine, powering the magnetic
field for any planet beyond Earth. Those are
among the items unveiled during the European
Geosciences Union General Assembly in
Vienna, Austria.
Juno mission scientists have taken data
collected by the spacecraft’s Jovian InfraRed
Auroral Mapper (JIRAM) instrument and
generated the 3-D fly-around of the Jovian
world’s north pole. Imaging in the infrared
part of the spectrum, JIRAM captures light
emerging from deep inside Jupiter equally
well, night or day. The instrument probes
the weather layer down to 30 to 45 miles
below Jupiter’s cloud tops. The imagery will
help the team understand the forces at work
in the animation—a north pole dominated
by a central cyclone surrounded by eight
circumpolar cyclones with diameters ranging
from 2,500 to 2,900 miles.
“Before Juno, we could only guess what
Jupiter’s poles would look like,” said Alberto
Adriani, Juno co-investigator from the Institute
for Space Astrophysics and Planetology, Rome.
“Now, with Juno flying over the poles at a close
distance it permits the collection of infrared
imagery on Jupiter’s polar weather patterns
and its massive cyclones in unprecedented
spatial resolution.”
Another Juno investigation discussed
during the media briefing was the team’s
latest pursuit of the interior composition of
the gas giant. One of the biggest pieces in
its discovery has been understanding how
Jupiter’s deep interior rotates.
“Prior to Juno, we could not distinguish
between extreme models of Jupiter’s interior
rotation, which all fitted the data collected by
Earth-based observations and other deep space
missions,” said Tristan Guillot, a Juno coinvestigator
from the Université Côte d’Azur,
Nice, France. “But Juno is different—it orbits
the planet from pole to pole and gets closer
to Jupiter than any spacecraft ever before.
Thanks to the amazing increase in accuracy
brought by Juno’s gravity data, we have
essentially solved the issue of how Jupiter’s
interior rotates: The zones and belts that we
see in the atmosphere rotating at different
speeds extend to about 1,900 miles. At this
point, hydrogen becomes conductive enough
to be dragged into near-uniform rotation by
the planet’s powerful magnetic field.”
The same data used to analyze Jupiter’s
rotation contain information on the planet’s
interior structure and composition. Not
knowing the interior rotation was severely
limiting the ability to probe the deep interior.
“Now our work can really begin in earnest—
determining the interior composition of the
solar system’s largest planet”, said Guillot.
Juno was built by Lockheed Martin
and is operated by NASA’s Jet Propulsion
Laboratory. The spacecraft was launched
from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station on
Aug. 5, 2011, and entered a polar orbit of
Jupiter on July 5, 2016.
Juno’s mission is to measure Jupiter’s
composition, gravity field, magnetic field and
polar magnetosphere. It will also search for
clues about how the planet formed, including
whether it has a rocky core, the amount of
water present within the deep atmosphere,
mass distribution, and its deep winds, which
can reach speeds up to 384 mph. •
“Jupiter, a world far larger than Earth, is so warm that it currently
radiates more internal heat than it receives from the Sun.”
