The red (and white) spots seen in Jupiter's atmosphere are storms. Or big UFOs. Or something.

A smaller red spot (tiny -- size of Mars) popped into existence sometime in 2006. The new guy is less than a year old -- maybe only a few days old.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://community.livejournal.com/wtf_nature/244585.html"><DIV>Note: questions have been raised about the size of the Great Red Spot. It's pretty common in textbooks to say that the GRS is "three times" the size of the earth, but there's a few problems with that. </DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://community.livejournal.com/wtf_nature/244585.html">ah, Jupiter is just going through puberty.
