Earth and Jupiters Great Red Spot
Earth compared to Jupiter. Computer artwork of the Earth (lower left) shown next to Jupiters Great Red Spot (upper right). Around three Earths would fit across this Jovian cyclical storm system. The Great Red Spot varies in size, sometimes being up to 40, 000 kilometres across. The Earth is 12, 756 kilometres across. The Great Red Spot consists of cold clouds that rotate anti-clockwise. The red colour is thought to be caused by phosphorus at the cloud tops. The Great Red Spot is thought to be hundreds of years old. Jupiter lies some 778 million kilometres from the Sun, while Earth lies some 150 million kilometres from the Sun

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stark contrast in size between Earth and Jupiter's Great Red Spot, a massive cyclical storm system. In this computer artwork, we see the Earth depicted in the lower left corner while Jupiters' iconic storm looms above in the upper right. Astonishingly, three Earths could comfortably fit across this colossal atmospheric phenomenon. The Great Red Spot is a mesmerizing feature of Jupiter that constantly changes in size, sometimes expanding up to an astonishing 40,000 kilometers across. This enormous storm consists of cold clouds that rotate counterclockwise and its distinct red hue is believed to be caused by phosphorus at its cloud tops. Remarkably, scientists estimate that this awe-inspiring spectacle has been swirling for hundreds of years. Jupiter itself lies an astounding 778 million kilometers away from the Sun while our humble planet resides merely 150 million kilometers from it. This image serves as a humbling reminder of just how vast our universe truly is. With elements of both artistry and scientific precision, this illustration captures not only the sheer magnitude of these celestial bodies but also invites us to contemplate their intricate meteorological systems. It offers a glimpse into the fascinating world beyond our own blue planet and encourages us to explore further into the mysteries of space and cosmology.
