You might have all seen it when released by NASA July 28, 2013, after being taken in 2012. But I did not. This image has been circulating or at least has been available for two years but I hadn't even heard about it. Only by the greatest of fortune did I catch a glimpse of it at Google Plus
To say this is the greatest image ever taken is giving in to hyperbole but no doubt it expands the capacity of our imagination to ponder the sad,forlorn reality of the overwhelmingly mind-boggling things we'll never get to see.
It is available in several resolutions,the one here is the largest.

We’ll get a look at some new cool stuff next summer when the Juno spacecraft arrives at Jupiter.

We may never get to actually see these mind boggling beautiful things, but I’m glad for pictures and my mind’s eye.
Thank you so much for posting.

We're painting the roses red
Oh, pardon me but Mr. 3,
Why must you paint them red?
