Meanwhile, the image also provides an update on Jupiter's Great Red Spot, which is now 9,800 miles across — that, NASA notes, makes it big enough to 'swallow' our entire planet.
Jupiter’s magnetic field is extremely intense, about 20,000 times stronger than Earth’s own. Researchers tracked the magnetic field over several years thanks to NASA’s Juno mission, gaining ...
For instance, Jupiter’s Great Red Spot—the persistent storm system big enough to swallow Earth whole. Although, in the infrared, it appears as a ring of fire around a pupil of darkness.
Cyclones at the north pole of Jupiter appear as swirls of striking colors in this extreme false color rendering of an image from NASA’s Juno mission. The huge, persistent cyclone ...
An artificially colored view of Jupiter as seen in ultraviolet light. In addition to the Great Red Spot, which appears blue, another oval feature can be seen in the brown haze at Jupiter's ...
The color differences in the enhanced image reflect variations in the chemical composition of different parts of Jupiter's atmosphere and reveal the three-dimensional nature of the powerful storms ...
image: This color image of Jupiter is a composite made of 3 images taken by the narrow angle camera on October 4 from a distance of 81.3 million kilometers from the planet. It is composed of ...
