Did someone forget to hit the red-eye reduction on their digital camera?

Yes! In fact, that is
a going theory among
the tin foil space types!

The whole theory is
Jupiter is really a
brown dwarf star, and

"Illuminati"
types controlling NASA dropped
the Galileo

through Jupiter's clouds
knowing its nuke battery
would implode and start

a chain reaction
that would IGNITE Jupiter
and cause a NEW STAR

to glow in our sky,
and the new star would get called,
of course, LUCIFER!

Did NASA Accidentally “Nuke” Jupiter?

""The Great Red Spot is the most powerful storm on Jupiter, indeed, in the whole solar system," said Glenn Orton, an astronomer at JPL who specializes in studies of storms on Jupiter and other giant planets."

Perhaps he means "the most powerful storm . . . " among planets. Solar storms are as large as Jupiter itself and eject material past the Earth.

"The Great Red Spot is the most powerful storm on Jupiter..."


I'm sure it's headed our way, then. Better strengthen the levees.

May not be such a bad thing. Should make Mars warm up a litle.

Real astronomers
have noticed most star systems
are not single stars

like our Sun, so talk
about Jupiter being
either a "failed" star

or something that might
flare into a "real" brown dwarf
isn't all tin foil . . .

is it accurate to call a standing atmospheric wave "a storm"?
