Check Out Juno’s Stirring Closeups of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot

Wired  

Even if you're a total space junkie, your mental image is probably an orange and white-striped planet with a big red dot in the southern hemisphere. Jupiter's red spot—a storm with a diameter larger than Earth's—has been the planet's most conspicuous feature for centuries, and was definitely the answer to a question on your fifth grade astronomy test. The Juno team posted these raw, unprocessed images on the webpage dedicated to images taken by the mission's onboard camera, JunoCam. The big red spot seems to cause pockets of turbulence in other bands of Jupiter's atmosphere as they pass by the behemoth, though scientists are no closer to knowing how the storm maintains its energy and cohesion. Future images will include data from Juno's other instruments, which should tell scientists more about the atmospheric processes boiling away underneath the storm's brick red surface.
