¿ Astronomy Picture of the Day [1]Discover the cosmos! Each day a different image or photograph of our fascinating universe is featured, along with a brief explanation written by a professional astronomer. 2020 October 19 IFRAME: [2]https://www.youtube.com/embed/xh3EKDghbuU A Flight over Jupiter Near the Great Red Spot Image Credit: [3]NASA/[4]JPL-Caltech/[5]SwRI/[6]MSSS; Video Processing & [7]License: [8]Kevin M. Gill; Music: [9]Vangelis Explanation: Are you willing to wait to see the largest and oldest known storm system in the Solar System? In the [10]featured video, Jupiter's [11]Great Red Spot finally makes its appearance 2 minutes and 12 seconds into the 5-minute video. Before [12]it arrives, you may find it pleasing to enjoy the [13]continually changing view of the [14]seemingly serene clouds of [15]Jupiter, possibly with your lights low and sound up. The 41 frames that compose [16]the video were captured in June as the robotic [17]Juno spacecraft was making a close pass over [18]our Solar System's largest planet. The time-lapse sequence actually occurred over four hours. Since arriving at Jupiter in 2016, [19]Juno's numerous [20]discoveries have included unexpectedly [21]deep atmospheric jet streams, the [22]most powerful auroras ever recorded, and [23]water-bearing clouds bunched near Jupiter's equator.
