Chapter 1824: Causes of Great Red Spot

The Great Red Spot rides on the rising air currents in the atmosphere, accepts the energy formed by the surrounding air currents, and maintains a good energy balance.

Scientists have long known that there is a thick atmosphere around Jupiter, composed of oxygen, helium, methane, ammonia and other substances. However, it is speculated from the data sent back by the Jupiter probe that the internal temperature of Jupiter is very high, and the heat emitted from it is 2.5 times the heat absorbed from the sun.

Therefore, some scientists speculate that the Great Red Spot may be the place where the highest temperature part of Jupiter's interior is continuously ejected from cylindrical vortices. After the Great Red Spot is ejected, the columnar vortex reacts with the methane, ammonia and other substances in the atmosphere to form an orange-red material cluster-the Great Red Spot.

The detection results of the Pioneer and Voyager probes show that the Great Red Spot is a huge cyclone storm, similar to a typhoon on Earth and a dust storm on Mars, but its scale is much larger and its duration It's also much longer. In addition to the Great Red Spot, there are some small red spots on Jupiter.

Scientists have discovered through research that the mystery of Jupiter's Great Red Spot can be explained as an unusually moving cyclone. The vertical movement of the airflow is an important reason why the Great Red Spot cannot disappear. Scientists previously thought that the Great Red Spot will eventually disappear, but this situation has continued. Hundreds of years.

Through the study of Jupiter's atmospheric circulation, researchers can also explain the vortex formed on the earth, which can last for several years. The mechanism is similar to the extreme cyclone motion of celestial bodies in the solar system. Jupiter’s Great Red Spot is located near the equator and appears to be a very stable super vortex.

Jupiter’s Great Red Spot has a huge diameter and can hold three Earths. Its shape can change. The Great Red Spot can last for hundreds of years. There must be another mechanism to replenish energy so that this super cyclone can continue. Keep it going, otherwise, according to our existing fluid dynamics theory, the Great Red Spot Society should have gradually lost its energy and disappeared centuries ago.

From the theory of the formation of typhoons or hurricanes on the earth, the maintenance of super cyclones requires energy intervention. The movement process, wind and radiant heat will reduce the energy of the system. The vertical flow in Jupiter’s atmosphere can attract hot gas to inject energy into the system from above the Great Red Spot. Cold gas enters the center of the storm from the lower middle.

Philip Marcus, a professor of fluid dynamics, used computer models to study vertical flow and eddy currents. In past investigations, scientists ignored the role of vertical flow because they thought it was not the main factor, or they used With a simpler equation, the mystery of the energy supplement of the Great Red Spot was not found.

Some scientists believe that the erythema is a small cyclone to supplement the energy of the system, but computer models show that this energy is not enough to maintain the existence of the erythema.

Jupiter's atmosphere is the largest planetary atmosphere in the solar system. It is composed of hydrogen and helium. There are hundreds of cyclones and vortices in the atmosphere. The Great Red Spot is one of the most persistent anticyclones.

Jupiter's Great Red Spot may release some mysterious energy, which continuously heats Jupiter's upper atmosphere. The effective solar rays irradiated on the earth can heat the atmosphere above the land, and its heat can even affect the space 402 kilometers away. Although Jupiter is five times the distance from the sun than the earth, its upper atmosphere still has a temperature, and on average The temperature is equivalent to the temperature of the corresponding layer of the earth's atmosphere.

By observing the invisible infrared rays emitted by a planet, astronomers can measure the planet's temperature. The top of Jupiter's visible cloud is about 48 kilometers above Jupiter. The infrared measured by a research team is 805 kilometers higher than this height. Researchers found that the temperature of such a high altitude is much higher than in the pre-image.

The Great Red Spot of Jupiter is one of the miracles of the solar system, discovered in the 17th century, just a few years after Galileo invented the telescope.

The Great Red Spot is a swirling pattern formed by colored gases. It is also called a "permanent hurricane." In the past few centuries. The size and color of the Great Red Spot often change, and its span is equivalent to the length of three earth diameters, according to its rotation speed. The vortex airflow rotates once in about 6 days. It only takes 10 hours to complete a rotation of Jupiter itself.

The Great Red Spot may be an excellent source of energy for heating Jupiter’s upper atmosphere. But we have no definite evidence yet. Prove that it can have a practical impact on the atmosphere of high altitude space.

Researchers pointed out that unusually high temperatures above Jupiter’s visible halo may not be unique to the solar system. This phenomenon exists not only in Saturn, Uranus and Neptune in the solar system, but also in all giant exoplanets outside the solar system.

Looking at Feifei, Zhao Zhongyao told him the knowledge about Jupiter's Great Red Spot. After hearing this, Feifei became very curious about Jupiter's Great Red Spot.

So Feifei looked at Zhao Zhongyao again and said, ‘Dad, do you want to go to the sky above Jupiter to see the Great Red Spot? Since this Great Red Spot is so famous, I also want to see it myself. ’

After hearing Feifei’s words, Zhao Zhongyao smiled and said, ‘Okay, this is not easy, we will fly to Jupiter right away. ’

When Zhao Zhongyao spoke like this, their spacecraft was not far away from Jupiter. Now Zhao Zhongyao is driving the spacecraft again, accelerating towards Jupiter.

Soon, they flew into space hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from Jupiter. Although the spacecraft is still more than 100,000 kilometers away from Jupiter. But within such a long distance. You can already see what Jupiter looks like.

After all, Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system. Jupiter is fourteen times the diameter of the Earth, and its mass is three times the total mass of all asteroids in the solar system except the sun.

Jupiter is so huge that Zhao Zhongyao and their spacecraft are still hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from Jupiter. But the huge size of Jupiter has been presented to everyone. Everyone now sees Jupiter outside the ship’s porthole, like an extremely huge light red balloon, floating in space.

Observing Jupiter from such a distance, it feels like a very beautiful planet. After all, Jupiter has a huge planetary ring. Although this planetary ring is not as obvious as Saturn. But Jupiter does have a huge planetary ring.

This planetary ring can only be seen when you observe it closely, and it is also very beautiful.
