At first glance, these swirling clouds might look like cream in coffee. ☕ ⁣ ⁣ In fact, during a flyby of Jupiter, our NASAJuno spacecraft captured this view of an area within a Jovian jet stream showing a vortex that has an intensely dark center. ⁣ ⁣ At the time, Juno was about 9,200 miles from the planet's cloud tops. Nearby, other features display bright, high altitude clouds that have puffed up into the sunlight.⁣ ⁣ Enhanced Image by Gerald Eichstadt and Sean Doran (CC BY-NC-SA) based on images provided Courtesy of NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/MSSS ⁣ ⁣ #NASA #Jupiter #SolarSystem #Storms #CoffeeInTheMorning
