Jupiter - 10/05/25

Sun Oct 05 2025

Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, captured one morning from my backyard. This is built from about 22 minutes of video, with thousands of frames stacked to beat the blurring of Earth's atmosphere. You can pick out the planet's banded cloud belts, storms of ammonia and other gases stretched into stripes by Jupiter's rapid rotation.
