Jupiter has a spot which is twice as large as the earth

leicester - The planet Jupiter appears to have another great spot. Which is about twice as large as the earth exists and possibly thousands of years. It is a storm that is driven by the aurora on the planet.

British scientists have discovered the spot. He is approximately 24 000 kilometers long and 12 kilometers wide 000. That's about the same size as the already famous red spot on Jupiter. The researchers saw the storm on recent recordings of Jupiter. When they viewed pictures that were made in the last fifteen years, the spot then appeared already visible.

The storm has been named Great Cold Spot, because the temperature is much lower than in the area. He is very variable, the shape and size can in a few days are completely different. That's different than the red spot, which is quite stable.
