Description

This view of the region just to the east of the Red Spot is seen in greatly exaggerated color. The colors do not represent the true hues seen in the Jovian atmosphere but have been produced by special computer processing to enhance subtle variations in both color and shading. JPL manages and controls the Voyager project for NASA's Office of Space Science.
