Space is so fricking cool

that doesn't look real...but if it is, that is the coolest pic I have ever seen from the Hubble.

That's not real. Jupiter is flat.

It's real. Unless one thinks NASA is lying.

Without Jupiter there would be no Tiger Droppings.

I don't think NASA is lying, but since the article says they are picking this up in the IR spectrum, that tells me that the photos are enhanced, as we can't see IR.

I wonder if Jupiter has one of those creatures that is in the movie Life inhabiting the planet?

Nope, it was observed last year and there are significant studies devoted to this especially the collaboration between this and what information the Juno spacecraft is sending back.

Anybody else see a smiley face with a comb over?

The giant red spot is amazing. A hurricane twice the size of earth that has been active for hundreds of years I think.

Yeah I always thought it was some sort of permanent thing in the atmosphere. Pretty cool that it's just some sort of gas storm still going.

And without Tigerdroppings there would be no Jupiter.
