Jupiter is growing a new Red Spot<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The official name of this storm is “Oval BA,” but “Red Jr.” might be better. It’s about half the size of the famous Great Red Spot and almost exactly the same color.<\/p>\n

Oval BA first appeared in the year 2000 when three smaller spots collided and merged. Using Hubble and other telescopes, astronomers watched with great interest. A similar merger centuries ago may have created the original Great Red Spot, a storm twice as wide as our planet and at least 300 years old.<\/p>\n

At first, Oval BA remained white\u2014the same color as the storms that combined to create it. But in recent months, things began to change. “The oval was white in November 2005, it slowly turned brown in December 2005, and red a few weeks ago,” reports Go. “Now it is the same color as the Great Red Spot!”<\/p>\n

“Wow!” says Dr. Glenn Orton, an astronomer at JPL who specializes in studies of storms on Jupiter and other giant planets. “This is convincing. We’ve been monitoring Jupiter for years to see if Oval BA would turn red\u2014and it finally seems to be happening.” (Red Jr? Orton prefers “the not-so-Great Red Spot.”)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well, Jupiter you’re still a young planet. I’m sure the condition will clear up when you get older. Meanwhile, don’t be silly, of course you should still ask Venus to the prom …<\/p>\n
