Lower Great Red Spot Atmospheric Flow [ID: 159]

As is visible in an earlier NASA animation of atmospheric flow on Jupiter (http://www.nasa.gov/centers/goddard/images/content/388629main_jupiter_skyflat.gif), a few small dark spots can be seen disappearing as they pass below the Great Red Spot. It would be very interesting to observe these spots in greater detail to see whether they are disappearing below the upper layers, or into the GRS itself. Or, perhaps they may just be dissipating?

    The atmosphere might take damage from the storm

    I would like to see how it would like on the cameras from Juno.

    This could be very exciting to see how the edge of the GRS interacts with the rest of the atmosphere!
