Its just odd to have seemingly random spots at the polar region. I want to know what it really going on there.

    To have spots on a planet that is made up of gas seems odd because you would think that the winds would mix them around which wouldn't allow for spots.

    I would also like to see what is going on with an area that is seemingly devoid of any of the other clouds. This would be an interesting photograph.

    I think this has to do with Jupiter's Magnetic field.
