    Looks like an actual pearl on the surface! It would be great to see it closer and what causing its white spots.

    This is cool, I never thought about it looking like pearls.

    Sting of Pearls reminds me of the way Earth has hurricanes traveling from East to West into the Western Hemisphere.

    It must be a common thing on planets. Even gas giants have a succession of storms following one another.

    These 'pearls' are long-lived anticyclonic storms. It will be nice to see one close up, and the image will also cover the interesting sector of jet stream (SSTBn) just to the north.

    Unlike the other pearls, this one stays pretty consistent in size and position within the belt.
