  Hubble Telescope Documents 10 Years of Dramatic Changes on Outer Planets

  NASA’s Hubble Telescope has tracked atmospheric and seasonal changes on Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune over ten years. Key findings include shifts in Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, Saturn’s seasonal phenomena, Uranus’ polar brightness, and Neptune’s storm activity. These insights, part of NASA’s Outer Planet Atmospheres Legacy (OPAL) p...

  Massive Thunderstorms on Jupiter Could Change Its Colour and Appearance

  Recent images of Jupiter reveal giant thunderstorms in the Southern Equatorial Belt. Reports suggest these storms, unleashing green lightning, could blend pale hues into the reddish-brown band, potentially causing it to vanish, as observed in prior events. Jupiter's storms remain visible for stargazers as it approaches Earth at its closest point.

  Jupiter’s Earth-Sized Storms Might Be Caused by Magnetic Tornadoes, Study Claims

  Magnetic tornadoes twisting down from Jupiter's ionosphere create massive, Earth-sized anticyclonic storms in the planet's atmosphere. These dark ovals, detectable only in ultraviolet light, form dense hazes of aerosols stirred by swirling magnetic vortices. This phenomenon, visible at Jupiter's poles, was unveiled through data from the Hubble Spac...

  Hubble Space Telescope Finds Jupiter’s Great Red Spot Mysteriously Oscillating in Size and Speed

  NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured new images of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, revealing unusual behaviour in the massive storm. Known for its longevity, this storm has been raging for over 150 years. However, recent observations show the spot oscillating in both size and speed, a phenomenon that has left scientists puzzled.
