Jupiter, Great Red Spot and Hubble Telescope
Jupiter's Great Red Spot is being squeezed, Hubble Telescope finds — and nobody knows why (video)
Jupiter's famous Great Red Spot has been under constant observation since the 19th century, but this new development is unprecedented.
NASA's Hubble Telescope captures Jupiter's Great Red Spot acting like a "giant stress ball"
The Great Red Spot is an anticyclone, "a long lasting area of high pressure on Jupiter creating a persistent storm"
Hubble Telescope Shows Great Red Spot of Jupiter Bouncing Like a Kickball
The Great Red Spot of Jupiter is one of the solar system’s most astonishing marvels. An elliptical storm with inky swirls of burnt orange and dulled copper, it is longer than the Earth is wide, and its winds screech through the tops of the planet’s clouds at 400 miles per hour.
Jupiter's Great Red Spot wobbles like Jell-o, according to Hubble snaps
After observing Jupiter's Great Red Spot (GRS) with the Hubble Space Telescope for 90 days, scientists have determined that it behaves like a "bowl of gelatin."
Jupiter’s Great Red Spot Is Moving In a ‘Very Unexpected’ Way, Bewildering Astronomers
Jupiter’s Great Red Spot is a high-pressure, rotating vortex that has stood the test of time. The cloud tops of this storm have been seen from Earth for more than 150 years. That the storm has morphed since then isn’t a surprise. But the new behavior is.
Jupiter’s Great Red Spot unstable, ‘jiggling like a bowl of gelatin’
High-resolution images taken by the Hubble Space Telescope of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot have revealed that it’s not as stable as we thought. Instead, the Spot is squeezing in and out, with NASA describing it as “jiggling like a bowl of gelatin.
Jupiter’s Great Red Spot Is Shapeshifting in Ways ‘Never Identified Before’
Hubble has been observing the Great Red Spot shrinking over the past 10 years, and the team behind the study predicts that it will become more stable as it gets smaller in size. “Right now it’s over-filling its latitude band relative to the wind field. Once it shrinks inside that band the winds will really be holding it in place,” Simon said.
Jupiter's Great Red Spot Is Acting Very Strangely, Puzzling Scientists
Great Ball of Fire Jupiter's Giant Red Spot (GRS) is large enough to swallow Earth — and as new imagery from Hubble suggests, it's a lot weirder than previously thought. Between December 2023 and March 2024,
NASA Surprised To Find New Secrets In Jupiter's Shrinking Great Red Spot, But It Can Still Swallow Earth
According to NASA, the Great Red Spot is actually a storm on Jupiter that is swirling for at least the last 150 years. Measuring about 16,350 km wide, it extends 100 kilometres beneath the cloud tops and is nearly 1.3 times the width of the Earth.
New Hubble images show Jupiter’s Great Red Spot wiggles like gelatin
Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, the solar system’s largest storm, wiggles like gelatin and contracts like a stress ball, new observations from Hubble Space Telescope find.
Jupiter’s Great Red Spot Enigma: Unexplained Oscillations Baffle Astronomers
Jupiter's Titanic Storm Wiggles Like a Plate of Gelatin Jupiter's birthmark is an unbelievably huge storm that’s mysteriously crimson red in color. It looks like a bloodshot cycloptic eye staring back at Earth.
NASA spacecraft to scour Jupiter's icy moon in search of life-supporting conditions
A massive NASA spacecraft is ready to set sail for Jupiter and its moon Europa. The craft, named Europa Clipper, will determine if conditions there could support life.
The largest storm in our solar system is moving unexpectedly, scientists say
Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, the solar system’s largest storm, wiggles like gelatin and contracts like a stress ball, new ...
