View this post on Instagram What did Hubble find in its newest images of Jupiter? The Great Red Spot, a storm big enough to swallow Earth, continues to shrink. Beneath it, the “Red Spot Jr.” rages on and is changing color again, while a new storm brews in the northern hemisphere. Hubble observed the stormy planet in multiple wavelengths last month when Earth was at its closest to Jupiter for the year...which was still a distance of 406 million miles!
