553-amalthea-modern-dixon – A high-resolution view from the craggy, textured terrain of the small moon Amalthea captures a massive gibbous Jupiter dominating the local horizon. The gas giant exhibits intricate, pale cream and tan atmospheric bands interlinked with complex white oval storms, alongside a subtle, low-contrast Great Red Spot. Two sharp, circular black moon shadows are cast distinctly upon the lower southern cloud structures, situated just above a starkly shadowed, rocky foreground composed of deep craters and ridges. digital, 2020
