Unique Hubble telescope photograph of Jupiter: Color and detail revealed

NASA. HUBBLE telescope. This photograph combines multi-wavelength observations in the Ultraviolet, Visible and Near-Infrared of the planet JUPITER. The light from Jupiter obtained by NASA's space telescope gives researchers an entirely new view of the giant planet. Hubble's near-infrared imagery, combined with ultraviolet views, provides a unique panchromatic look that offers insight into the altitude and distribution of the planet's haze and particles. This complements Hubble's visible-light images, which show ever-changing cloud patterns. In this photo, the parts of Jupiter's atmosphere that are at a higher altitude, particularly at the poles, appear red as a result of ultraviolet light absorbing ultraviolet light. Conversely, the blue-tinted areas represent ultraviolet light reflected from the planet.
