Fight disinformation: Sign up for the free Mother Jones Daily newsletter and follow the news that matters.

Let’s end the day with something more edifying than the Trump White House. Here is Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, as captured by NASA’s Juno spacecraft. Image processing was done by Roman Tkachenko, with some additional putzing around by me. Click here if you want to play around yourself.

UPDATE: Sorry, it’s Cassini that’s about to dive into Saturn and disappear forever. Juno will be around for a long time to come. I’ve corrected the text to remove the fake news that Juno was near the end of its mission and was about to dive into Jupiter.

Fact:

Mother Jones was founded as a nonprofit in 1976 because we knew corporations and billionaires wouldn't fund the type of hard-hitting journalism we set out to do.
