When the Cassini spacecraft flew past Jupiter in late 2000 en route to Saturn, it took a sequence of images of the planet and its flowing cloud bands. This image sequence was assembled to create the movie seen here.

Jupiter's clouds can swirl rapidly in raised high-pressure storm systems that circle the planet. The above pictured white ovals are located near the Great Red Spot, and have persisted on Jupiter since the 1930s. The Great Red Spot has persisted for at least 300 years. Currently, no one knows why ovals last as long as they do. White ovals are confined to circular belts around Jupiter, but can interact to cause nearby chaotic cloud regions.
