Might have something to do with the energy hitting the planet from large Solar Flares.

[surfer]

It has to be AGW...Gore must be giving speeches there.

[exDemMom]

Clearly, it’s global warming. Better cut down on CO2 emissions in the Jupiterian atmosphere.

Seriously, though, would an observer of Earth be wondering why the clouds appear and disappear? It seems to me that the right questions to be asking are why the clouds on Jupiter persist for so long, and why do they encircle the entire planet?

"Why are planet-circling clouds disappearing and reappearing on Jupiter?"

SUV's.

[reagan_fanatic]

“It’s shrinking!!”

[Bean Counter]

Must be another one of those mysterious contrails....

Let's send Gore there in his giant private jet so he can fly around in his coal-powered jet chair to speechify about how the Jupiterians need to turn off the heat in their homes and stop driving there SUV’s.

He'll need additional money to arm himself against the man-bear-pig.

That’s an awfully big effect for a “planet” which is supposed to be 4 billion years old and presumably in stable equilibrium...

I was just there and found the weather to be quite pleasant.

I shot this image of Jupiter last year.

I'm set up for deep space imaging, not planetary imaging. This out of focus, with poor resolution image, was the best effort the optical train and camera could produce. I will eventually get a camera designed for capturing planetary images, using video. I will take the video and use software that will capture and process only the best video frames, and combine or stack them together for planetary imaging. The planetary images produced by video method, will be 100 times better resolution...Most serious planetary amateur astronomers are using simple modified web-cams which produce way better images than what is seen here. This image was just a single frame shot with a Canon DSLR.

It should be noted, when viewed directly through the telescope eyepiece, the surface or atmospheric cloud detail of Jupiter is extremely sharp. So sharp, when Jupiter's moons pass in front of the planet, their circular shadows can be easily seen and tracked across the face of Jupiter. Seeing this occur, basically in real time, is quite spectacular.

Looks like a problem with cow farts!

[hinckley buzzard]

Cool stuff. The "surface" and atmosphere of Jupiter must be almost beyond imagining.
