The scientists also took images of Jupiter’s auroras with NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope at the same time Webb made its observations, capturing them in ultraviolet light. They uncovered a strange discrepancy between the two sets of data, the brightest light observed by Webb had no real counterpart in the Hubble images.

The James Webb Space Telescope has observed glowing auroras on Jupiter like never before.

The Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, which operates the Webb and Hubble telescopes, released a video of Jupiter's tempestuous roiling auroras, which you can watch above.
