NASA has published rare images showing a large eye-shaped storm in Jupiter's atmosphere.
According to available information, this "oval-shaped storm is one of the largest storms observed in recent years, just smaller than the diameter of Mars."
"The recent images of the storm, NN-LRS-1, were captured on July 10, 2017 by cameras mounted on the Juno space probe when it was about 11,000 kilometers from the giant planet's clouds. Their attention in this storm is its strange shape, which resembles the human eye, whose color is colored in azure, and its center was brown. "
On June 5, 2011, the Juno probe was launched on an Atlas 5 missile. It reached Jupiter's orbit on July 4, 2016, after a distance of 2.8 billion km, and is planned to orbit the Jupiter 37 times only 5000 kilometers from the giant planet.
Juno's mission is to collect information about the buyer's atmosphere and magnetic field and send it to the Earth for scientists to study in this planet.
