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.
Jupiter’s Great Red Spot Moves Like the Solar System’s Biggest Kickball
A sequence of images captured by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope showed how much the giant storm changed shape as it traveled within the planet’s atmosphere.
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 jiggles like JELL-O
By contrast, the planet Neptune has dark spots that can drift widely in latitude without strong jet streams holding them in place. Jupiter’s GRS has been at a southern latitude, trapped between the jet streams, for as long as Earth-bound telescopes have been observing it.
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.
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"
Jupiter's Great Red Spot Changes Colour And Jiggles, Reveals NASA's Hubble Telescope
During December 2023 and March 2024, Hubble was fully dedicated to the GRS conducting an observational survey solely for this purpose.
