Stunning, Detailed New Image of Jupiter

darenw writes "From the Cassini spacecraft's flyby of Jupiter in late 2001, a new mosaic image has been assembled, revealing a stunning amount of detail, beautiful waves, swirls and spots in Jupiter's atmosphere. Get the story and images at the Cassini imaging team website." This is a huge image. My eyeball guess is that each pixel is the size of Pennsylvania.

I can just see the people that say the moon landings were fake now... "Those images of Jupiter can't be real. There aren't any stars in the background!"

This image of Jupiter is an obvious fake. There's no monolith full of stars in the foreground.
