Something Peculiar Is Happening on Jupiter!

No other planet in the solar system reaches the dimensions of mighty Jupiter. With a diameter of 89,000 miles, the gas giant trumps that of our Earth by a factor of 11; in theory, our blue home planet would fit more than 1,300 times into the cosmic giant.

At the same time, Jupiter has about twice the mass of all the other planets in our home system combined. At an average distance of 483 million miles from the sun, Jupiter regularly becomes the scene of elemental processes: extreme weather phenomena occur again and again on the volatile surface of the celestial body, sometimes presenting themselves as strikingly long-lived.

By far the most famous cyclone on the largest member of our planetary system is the “Great Red Spot”. In fact, experts have been observing this gigantic structure for several centuries – and yet the oversized anticyclone continues to pose unsolvable riddles to the experts to this day.

What we have been able to find out about the “Great Red Spot” so far, and what mysteries still remain to be unraveled.
