James Webb’s New Pictures Of Jupiter

The biggest planet in our solar system was seen by De Pater and Thierry Fouchet, a professor at the Paris Observatory, using the Webb telescope.

Multiple photos from the telescope were combined to create an overall composite, giving Earth a view of the gas giant that shifts from orange and yellow in Jupiter’s poles to blues and purples toward the center.

Additionally, the Great Red Spot on Jupiter, a storm large enough to swallow up Earth, appears white in these pictures.
