High Winds on Jupiter (from appx. 4.000.000 Km)

Caption NASA originale:"A high resolution image of the Jovian mid-latitudes taken by Voyager 1 on March 2, 1979, shows distinctly differing characteristics of the planet's meteorology. The well defined pale orange line running from southwest to northeast (North is at the top) marks the high speed north temperate current with wind speeds of about 120 meters p/s. These high winds produce a cleaner flow pattern in the surrounding clouds whose average lifetime is of about 2 years".
