Jupiter Stares Back at NASA

NASA has released an eerie photograph of Jupiter, the biggest planet in our solar system, staring back at the Hubble telescope. The photograph was taken in April, 2014 as Hubble observed Jupiter’s massive storm, also known as the Great Red Spot. When the shadow of Ganymede, the largest moon in our solar system, passed over Jupiter’s storm, it looked just like a pupil inside a giant eye. NASA likened the image of Jupiter to an enormous Cyclops. Jupiter’s Great Red Spot is a massive storm that was discovered by humans in the 1600s. NASA has had its eye more closely on the spot in recent years because studies have shown that the storm is slowly shrinking.
