Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, the solar system’s largest storm, wiggles like gelatin and contracts like a stress ball, new observations from Hubble Space Telescope find.

Researchers studying the origin of Jupiter's Great Red Spot suspect it's not the same storm observed by Cassini in 1665. Instead, this Great Red Spot likely formed at least 190 years ago.

Jupiter’s Great Red Spot —a rotating storm that is so large it could swallow Earth—isn’t what it used to be. Research has revealed that the crimson-hued spot visible today is, on average ...
