The space agency on Tuesday [released several photographs](https://www.missionjuno.swri.edu/junocam/processing/) of the interplanetary landmark taken by its [Juno spacecraft](http://time.com/4795034/jupiter-juno-mission-nasa/) as it flew over Jupiter. The images show a blob of swirling reddish hues in the middle of Jupiter’s white clouds. [Kevin Gill](https://www.flickr.com/people/kevinmgill/), a self-described “science data visualization artist,” took NASA’s raw photographs to make the images seen above and below. > [](https://twitter.com/kevinmgill/status/885154097908785153) Scientists say the Great Red Spot is a gigantic storm, twice as wide as Earth, which has been churning on Jupiter for at least 150 years. NASA’s Juno spacecraft flew over the Great Red Spot on Monday to give mankind its closest-ever look at the 10,000-mile-wide storm. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4855003/jupiter-juno-great-red-spot-photos-pictures/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4855003/jupiter-juno-great-red-spot-photos-pictures/"},"headline":"NASA's New Photos of Jupiter's Great Red Spot Are Stunning","datePublished":"2017-07-12T17:09:43.000Z","dateModified":"2026-03-31T11:07:22.950Z","description":"The Juno spacecraft just got humanity's best-ever look at Jupiter's iconic feature","url":"https://time.com/4855003/jupiter-juno-great-red-spot-photos-pictures/","keywords":["Space","onetime"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt7a7ee60030dc63f5/6988d5520a4a22b5b49cf03f/nasa-jupiter-1.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Chan","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-chan/"}],"articleSection":"Science","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt7a7ee60030dc63f5/6988d5520a4a22b5b49cf03f/nasa-jupiter-1.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"The Great Red Spot of Jupiter","caption":"","creditText":"Kevin Gill via Flickr/NASA","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/science/","name":"Science"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/space/","name":"Space"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4855003/jupiter-juno-great-red-spot-photos-pictures/","name":"NASA's New Photos of Jupiter's Great Red Spot Are Stunning"}}]}] ```
