The Clouds of Jupiter

NASA APOD

COSMIC MESSAGE

Jupiter's colorful cloud bands are a mystery, given its cold temperatures and hydrogen-helium composition. The blue, orange, and brown hues, along with the salmon-colored Great Red Spot, are hard to explain. Some theories suggest that trace amounts of more colorful hydrogen compounds or sulfur may be responsible for the appearance. The planet's rapid rotation also creates the distinct banded structure.
