Stunning new images of Jupiter & Europa shared by NASA

[Slayer]

It might not sport the photogenic rings of Saturn, but the striped clouds of Jupiter are gorgeous. NASA and ESA's Hubble Space Telescope has captured a beautiful new image of the solar system's biggest planet.

The image was taken on August 25 and just shared, but it's already giving researchers a fresh look at the weather on the planet. That includes the larger-the-Earth storm that is the Great Red Spot. You can also see a new storm that NASA calls "a cousin" to the Great Red Spot.

Additionally, in the upper left of the image, you can spot the moon Europa, the smallest of Jupiter's four Galilean moons. Recent research has upped the estimate of total moons for Jupiter, putting the number at as many as 600.

The only planet I care about is Chromatica, but Jupiter's cute. She's getting a little chubby, though.

Oh, okay. That’s pretty far.

Hmmm, maybe a soap designed like that would look cool

There's nothing I love more than astronomy and Sailormoon.

I didn't say it was? I said the first image is Jupiter and the second is one of it's moons...

No but it’s the planet with the most amount of moons
