It was discovered on May 9th and 10th that Jupiter has developed a new red spot. This was captured by Hubble Space Telescope and the Keck telescope of Hawaii. They had captured images of the red spot and it was officially released on May 22nd. This red spot is said to be the third red spot of Jupiter. Most of the astronomers thought that climatic changes in Jupiter had brought about this red spot to appear. According to Michael Wong from the University of California, Berkeley, if neither the new spot nor the Great Red Spot changes course, they will collide sometime in August. This seems to be an interesting piece of information.
