Jupiter and its luring moon Europa sparkle in another photograph by the Hubble Space Telescope.
Hubble snapped the image a month ago when the planet was 406 million miles (653 million kilometers) away, and the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore delivered it Thursday.
Europa, which is littler than our own moon, shows up as a pale spot close by its giant, shading streaked gas planet. A bright white splotch in Jupiter’s northern scopes shows another tempest surging around earth at 350 mph (560 kph).
Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, in the interim, is curiously red in the photograph. While steadily shrinking, the monstrous tempest is still large enough to swallow Earth.
With respect to Europa, researchers accept a sea is streaming beneath its frigid surface. NASA intends to launch a rocket, the Europa Clipper, in the not so distant future to check whether conditions there may be ready forever.
