"Cool image time! Yesterday I posted a short gif created by citizen scientist Gerald Eichstädt, using twelve Juno images, that showed some cloud changes over time... Today, I discovered that Eichstädt has created an even more spectacular movie, which I have embedded below the fold, based on images taken during Juno’s tenth close fly-by."

"These images are taken from different perspectives along Juno’s trajectory. But it’s possible to reproject the JunoCam images to a common perspective. Displaying such a sequence rapidly reveals cloud motion in Jupiter’s storm systems."

The red spot is supposedly vanishing. If Jupiter is this active, why has that been around since before Galileo?

Anthropogenic Jovian Warming. Galileo must have fired an attitude thruster too close to it.

Eichstädt warns that the blinking nature of the film might make it unsuitable for those with epilepsy. If this is not an issue for you, you should then definitely take a look. Looks like swirling tentacles...someone tweet it to Kurt Eichenwald!

Nope. Some ‘evil’ Republican left her SUV warming up in the driveway during the last Arctic blast.
