Swirls of Jupiter

Jupiter is a very stormy, turbulent, violent planet. The planet completes a day (or one complete rotation) within roughly 10 hours, which creates massive winds, producing these swirls, and violent storms. The fast rotation coupled with the fact that the planet is nothing but gas greatly multiplies the Coriolis effect. Earth too has a Coriolis effect, this creates the characteristic hurricane shapes and also contributes to the fact that storms will spin the opposite direction in different hemispheres. Luckily, our rotation is slower - our storms are less frequent and less violent than they would be if our days were shorter.

The above images come from the recent Juno mission by NASA.

looks like coffee swirlsss

(fr tho ppl have been waiting for the jupiter mission results for like 999 years, thanks to this mission, weve learned a lot including the fact that jupiters magnetic force is 2x bigger than we thought, and it also threw off long-held assumptions about jupiter having a small solid core)
