Zeta Oph, The Runaway Star

It's a latte bigger than Earth. ☕

This picture isn’t from your local coffee shop, it’s from our spacecraft Juno as it passed by Jupiter. Jupiter is well known for its Great Red Spot, but it’s also home to anticyclonic storms, known as white ovals. White oval’s can be storms the size of earth and can generate winds up to 335 miles per hour (539 kilometers per hour) and some storms can reach 60 miles (100 kilometers) tall.

Jupiter is strapped with “belts” of white and red, that wrap around the planet. Traveling both east and west, why these belts are distinct is something mystery to scientists, one possibility is that the ammonia gas in the atmosphere travels up and down in alignment with the planets jet streams.

Juno’s prime mission of measuring and studying Jupiter’s atmosphere and magnetic structure was completed in 2021, but it will continue to measure the planet’s unique structure until at least 2025. This image was color enhanced by citizen scientists Gerald Eichstädt and Sean Doran.

Make sure you pick the best filter 📸

This photo of a barred spiral galaxy 48 million light-years from Earth, taken by @NASAHubble, is a cosmic wonder. In its original form, though, it wouldn't look nearly as dazzling—raw images from Hubble and other space telescopes come in shades of gray, only showing the amount of light captured across all wavelengths the telescope's camera can measure.

In order to turn those images into colorful sights like this one, we take photos with special filters that block out almost all wavelengths of light. One of the filters used on this image sees only light that would appear green to human eyes: light at wavelengths around 555 nanometers. The final multicolor image you see here uses data from seven different filters, collected with Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3 and Advanced Camera for Surveys.
