20 Breathtaking Images From NASA’s Public Library
The Great Red Spot of Jupiter
During a close pass of Jupiter in February 2019, NASA’s Juno spacecraft captured the gas giant planet and its Great Red Spot, which is the site of a massive storm on the planet’s surface.
Although it has been continuously observed since 1830, earlier observations from 1665 to 1713 are believed to be of the same storm; if this is correct, it has existed for at least 360 years.
This view was created by citizen scientist Kevin M. Gill by compiling multiple images and data from the JunoCam. Juno was launched in 2011 and reached Jupiter in 2016. Its sole mission is to explore, study, and map the planet.
Great pics !!!

Wow. Amazing pictures. I’d like to get a poster of the Helix Nebula, how do i go about that?
Fascinating….I was very young when I listen to the Russian Dog barking in the space in our radio & we are now watching human beings are there for space walking…
God is awesome! Who would not be struck by this living, loving God who even makes beauty out of the storms —visible beauty for us.
