NASA presents a beautiful new photo of Jupiter that seems almost too incredible to be true

The man, Jupiter is sure that it is weird. The gaseous giant is one of the most photographed objects in our solar system thanks to its mesmerizing and swirling cloud peaks, but the last photo of NASA's colossal planet is even more impressive than ever before. habit.

The photo, which was taken by NASA's Juno spacecraft, has everything you want to see in a close-up of Jupiter. There are massive cyclones, a gorgeous color contrast and lots of details lurking in each spiral storm cloud. It is images like this that should make everyone very happy that NASA has expanded Juno's mission instead of allowing it to sink into a hot death in Jupiter's atmosphere.

As NASA explains in a blog post showing the photo, the image was captured at a distance of about 9,600 miles above the cloudy peaks of the planet. It may seem like a huge distance, but the planet is so massive that there is still a lot to see.

"The area seen here is somewhat chaotic and turbulent, given the various swirling cloud formations.In general, the darker clouds are deeper in the atmosphere of Jupiter, while the clouds Brilliant are very high, "notes NASA. "The bright clouds are most likely ammonia or ammonia and water, mixed with a pinch of unknown chemical ingredients."

There are a lot of tiny and intricate details hidden between thundering storm clouds, with innumerable mini-whirlpools gliding in all directions as the largest cyclones dominate the upper atmosphere. One of the most interesting features of the photo is the big storm in bright colors near the bottom of the picture.

"A bright oval in the center of the bottom stands out from the scene," says NASA. "This feature appears uniformly white in ground telescope observations, however, with JunoCam, we can observe the fine – scale structure in this weather system, including the extra structures within it. There is no significant movement apparent inside this feature, as the large red spot, its winds probably slow down towards the center. "

The picture you see above did not arrive from Juno in its current state, as it has been improved and improved by the photography gurus to bring out as much detail as possible. You can see Juno's raw footage on NASA's JunoCam web portal, and there's a lot of candy for the eyes.
