In an exciting new discovery, scientists have identified that magnetic tornadoes on Jupiter are creating massive storms the size of Earth. These storms, which manifest as dark ovals in the planet ...

Magnetic vortices twisting down from Jupiter's ionosphere into its deep atmosphere cause giant, ultraviolet-absorbing polar anticyclones, each the size of our Earth.

Observations from NASA’s Juno spacecraft reveal that Jupiter’s strong magnetic field and the unique properties of its plasma ...

Campus News Magnetic tornadoes create Earth-size spots discovered at Jupiter’s poles While Jupiter’s Great Red Spot has been a constant feature of the planet for centuries, a team of astronomers have ...

By studying aspects such as possible magnetic tornados causing dark spots at Jupiter’s poles, it helps astronomers and scientists better understand Jupiter as a whole.

Magnetic Tornadoes Are Creating Earth-Sized Haze Ovals Around Jupiter’s Poles Like those magnetic stirring mugs but, you know, enormous.

UC Berkeley researchers have discovered that dark ovals at Jupiter’s poles, whose presence was previously unexplained, are caused by “magnetic tornadoes.” ...

According to Stallard’s theory, the dark oval is likely stirred from above by a vortex that is created when Jupiter’s magnetic field lines experience friction in two very distant locations.

Something's up. Magnetic Tornadoes Researchers have observed mysterious "dark ovals," each roughly the size of the Earth, appearing on the polar regions of Jupiter on the ultraviolet spectrum.

Dark ovals in Jupiter's polar haze, visible only at UV wavelengths, were first noticed 25 years ago, then ignored. A new study shows that these dark UV ovals are common, appearing at the south ...

While Jupiter’s Great Red Spot has been a constant feature of the planet for centuries, University of California, Berkeley, astronomers have discovered equally large spots at the planet’s north and ...
