Dark ovals in Jupiter's polar haze, visible only at UV wavelengths, were first noticed 25 years ago, then ignored. A new study shows that these dark UV ovals are common, appearing at the south pole in ...

While Jupiter’s Great Red Spot has been a constant feature of the planet for centuries, a team of astronomers have discovered equally large spots at the planet’s north and south poles that appear and ...

NASA’s Juno spacecraft has been orbiting Jupiter since 2016, mapping the planet’s gravity and magnetic fields with extraordinary precision. Instead of finding a dense solid core or no core at all, the ...

Jupiter is well-known for its Great Red Spot, but astronomers have recently discovered equally large spots at the giant gas planet’s north and south poles that appear and disappear at random. The dark ...
