Sexyy photo
I'm no scientist, butt I believe that is an image of Jupiter's Uranus
Slightly adjusted desktop background
I can practically hear the Cortex Command theme when it's portrayed like this
That looks like a lot of storms
Peter?
"girls go to college to get more knowledge, boys go to Jupiter to get more stupider"
Kids say this to each other
Thanks ! Never heard it before
Some of us went to Mars, to get candy bars.
And I went to Venus, to get more...
No, you.
Jokes aside, damn thatssa a pretty planet
Stary night vibes
Solid reference. 10/10
I don't get it, do you mind explaining?
Isn't that artificially colored?
Ya, but I rather think about it as an 'enhanced spectrum' image. The structures you see are all real and similarly coloured, it's just enhanced
Ahh, yes. Crank the saturation, crush the shadows, and blast the highlights.
Jupiter's gonna have a bomb tinder profile now
Or Planets Only
Pluto:…
Almost all gas giant images are
Yeah. Neptune's a dull grey.
The famous Jupiter one isn't.
Not quite. It's based on real wavelenths detected, but they might've been arificially assigned colours (although I think the images this is based on sort of correspond to human perception). But the colours are massively adjusted and contrast increased way past the point I would consider reasonable.
These images are mindblowing. Bring me back down to Earth? Do you have a favorite image with reasonable coloring and contrast?
Why is it so swirly?
the storms, and different chemical/compositions im guessing.
There are jet winds circling around Jupiter westwards and ones that are circling the other way, which creates turbulence, and there are ginormous thunderstorms as well
Storms
Mmnm I bet there's chocolate nugat and bipedal organisms in there
Definitely flat too
