I always forget. Is Jupiter's "eye" supposed to be above or below the planet's equator? I know that simple telescopes flip the focused image so that the true "top" of the image is really at the bottom.

The Great Red Spot rotates in a counterclockwise direction in the southern hemisphere. So yes, this image is oriented "upside down" to our frame of reference.
