New Images of Jupiter From Cassini

Mike Parsons writes "BBC News is showing some new images of Jupiter recorded by the cameras from the Cassini spacecraft. Here is a quote: Cloudy belts and zones dominate Jupiter's appearance - the darker belts alternating with lighter zones. Scientists think the pale zones are areas of rising atmosphere, partly because many clouds on Earth form where atmosphere rises. Conversely, the dark belts have been viewed as areas where the atmosphere descends. However, pictures from the Cassini spacecraft tell a different story."
