Green Bolt of Lightning Captured on Jupiter by NASA’s JunoCam

Thanks to an image taken by JunoCam, we can clearly see a spark of green lightning in the distance. The photo, which was processed by citizen scientist Kevin M. Gill, was taken during Juno's 31st close flyby of Jupiter on Dec. 30, 2020. So what accounts for the green color?
