Voyager’s View of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot

Jupiter's Great Red Spot
​This view of Jupiter was taken by Voyager 1.

This view of Jupiter was taken by Voyager 1. This image was taken through color filters, recombined to produce the color image, and assembled from three black and white negatives by the Image Processing Lab at Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

The twin Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft are exploring where nothing from Earth has flown before. Continuing on their more-than-40-year journey since their 1977 launches, they each are much farther away from Earth and the Sun than Pluto.
