Handout - Hubble Image of Jupiter’s Storm Activity and Io Taken January 6, 2024. NASA's Hubble Space Telescope imaged both sides of the giant planet, Jupiter, on January 5-6, 2024. Incredible new pictures show the stormy weather on Jupiter. The images, captured by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope on January 5-6, 2024, provide a view of both hemispheres of the planet. The space agency said Thursday (14 March) the visuals feature the largest planet in the Solar System "in all its banded glory". One image depicts the 'Great Red Spot,' the Solar System's largest storm, with a size massive enough to swallow the Earth. NASA explain that Hubble monitors Jupiter and the other outer solar system planets every year under the Outer Planet Atmospheres Legacy program (OPAL). OPAL focuses on long-term observations of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune to monitor and understand changes in their atmospheres, including variations in weather patterns, cloud formations, and other atmospheric phenomena.

China's cosmic ray observatory has discovered a giant ultra-high-energy gamma-ray bubble structure, about ten million times larger than our solar system, in the Cygnus star-forming region, around 5,000 light years from Earth. Based on the observations made by China's LHAASO, scientists identified that star-forming region as one source of the cosmic rays in the Milky Way with an energy level higher than 10 peta-electron volts (quadrillion electron volts or PeV), about 1,000 times more than the record high achieved by any manmade accelerator on Earth.
