This is a color composite picture of Jupiter seen in ultraviolet, which reveals different features in Jupiter’s atmosphere.
Ultraviolet light are short, high-energy wavelengths of light beyond what the human eye can see. Ultraviolet light reveals phenomena such as light from the hottest and youngest stars which are usually hidden in the dust of local galaxies; it can also reveal the composition, densities, and temperatures of the material between stars.
This image was released in honor of Jupiter reaching both perigee and opposition. Perigee means when Jupiter reached its closest point to Earth this year, which occurred on November 1-2, 2023 The distance between the Earth and Jupiter at that time was 595 million km
