Storms on Jupiter, in this image recorded by the #JunoMission, are fuelled by the sun from the planet's fifth planet and form vortices. Because the planet has no solid surface, these storms are churned by winds in excess of 643 km/s, which can persist for years, decades or even centuries.
Juno captured this storm within Jupiter's iconic banded jet streams as it flew over the gas giant's clouds from a distance of more than 13,000 km. These moving jet streams carry the planet's clouds of mostly hydrogen and helium, which cut through the planet's atmosphere with ammonia and water.

A split image shows blue, white and tan clouds and storms swirling through Jupiter's atmosphere. These clouds gently swirl and curl around each other as they float across the planet's surface.
It's an interesting sight, isn't it?
