A Son of the Rock

An amazing picture (via Astronomy Picture of the Day for 30/8/22) from the James Webb Telescope.

It is an unusual image of the Solar System’s largest planet but is unmistakable due to the large swirling storm at the bottom right (which in visible light is known as the Great Red Spot.)

Also notable are Jupiter’s rings, not normally easily discernible, and its southern and northern aurorae – not to mention two of its smaller satellites.
