On the other hand why are the images do fuzzy? - Hubble images are usually far clearer.

For my money, it’s pretty damn amazing they can get that much detail at all, at that range, from LEO. Hubble pictures of Jupiter and Saturn are “clearer” because J & S are much bigger and much closer.

From what I’ve seen, Hubble photos of these planets have usually been somewhat fuzzy.

Sorry but I think Hubble is mostly George Lukas Industrial Light and Magic. It can focus on say Apollo 11 moon lander on the Sea of Tranquility, but can see a Crab Nebula 100 billion light years away clear as a bell.

Stuff inside this solar system is way to close to focus clearly.
