Premium Framed Print : Jupiters Great Red Spot
Framed Photos from Space Images
Jupiters Great Red Spot
As Voyager 1 flew by Jupiter, it captured this photo of the Great Red Spot. The Great Red Spot is an anti-cyclonic (high- pressure) storm on Jupiter that can be likened to the worst hurricanes on Earth. An ancient storm, it is so large that three Earths could fit inside it. This photo, and others of Jupiter, allowed scientists to see different colors in clouds around the Great Red Spot which imply that the clouds swirl around the spot (going counter-clockwise) at varying altitudes. The Great Red Spot had been observed from Earth for hundreds of years, yet never before with this clarity and closeness (objects as small as six hundred kilometers can be seen). The Voyager mission has been managed by NASAs Office of Space Science and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory

Grand Tour Great Red Spot Jupiter Voyager
17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the awe-inspiring beauty and power of Jupiter's Great Red Spot, as seen by Voyager 1 during its historic flyby. The Great Red Spot, a colossal anti-cyclonic storm on Jupiter, is reminiscent of Earth's most devastating hurricanes. What makes this ancient storm truly remarkable is its sheer size - it could easily accommodate three entire Earths within its swirling tempest. Thanks to this close encounter, scientists were able to examine the Great Red Spot in unprecedented detail. The vivid colors observed in the surrounding clouds indicate that they rotate around the spot at different altitudes, creating a mesmerizing counter-clockwise swirl. While astronomers had been observing this enigmatic feature from our planet for centuries, never before had they witnessed such clarity and proximity. The Voyager mission, expertly managed by NASA's Office of Space Science and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), has provided us with invaluable insights into our solar system's largest planet. These extraordinary images have expanded our understanding of Jupiter's atmospheric dynamics and deepened our fascination with its mysterious storms. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of humanity's insatiable curiosity about the cosmos and our relentless pursuit of knowledge beyond Earth’s boundaries.
