Stunning look at Jupiter in 4K display

The Hubble Space Telescope has helped NASA to shoot a 4K video of the biggest planet in our solar system’s rotation.

The new video and images are a new series being put together by NASA that will profile the outer-lying planets in our solar system using the Hubble telescope.

The new program, called the Outer Planet Atmospheres Legacy program, will focus on different planets each year, starting with Jupiter, then Uranus, Neptune and Saturn, and will allow scientists to study how the planets change over time.

NASA also explained that the images captured by Hubble “confirm that the Great Red Spot continues to shrink and become more circular, as it has been doing for years.”

Images also reveal a “rare wave” near the equator and a “filament-like feature” inside the Great Red Spot, neither of which had ever been seen before.
