There's a storm on Jupiter older than modern science.
There's a storm on Jupiter older than modern science. The Great Red Spot has been churning for centuries — and it's wider than the entire Earth. That alone should stop you cold. But the storm is almost a footnote on Jupiter, because this planet operates on a scale that makes every comparison feel inadequate. About 1,300 Earths slot into its volume. Jupiter is more than twice as massive as every other planet in the solar system put together. And despite all that bulk, it completes a full rotation in under ten hours — faster than any other planet. It also has at least 95 known moons, one of which, Ganymede, is the largest moon in the whole solar system. Jupiter isn't just big. It's a system within a system.
