  The Great Red Spot is a persistent high-pressure region in the atmosphere of Jupiter , producing an anticyclonic storm that is the largest in the Solar System . Located 22 degrees south of Jupiter ‘s equator , it produces wind-speeds up to 432 km/h (268 mph). Observations from 1665 to 1713 are believed to be of the same storm; if this is correct, it has existed for at least 356 years. [1] It was next observed in September 1831, with 60 recorded observations between then and 1878 when continuous observations began. The Great Red Spot may have existed since before 1665, but the present spot was first seen only after 1830, and well-studied only after a prominent apparition in 1879. The storm that was seen in the 17th century may have been different than the storm that exists today. [4] A long gap separates its period of current study after 1830 from its 17th century discovery. Whether the original spot dissipated and reformed, whether it faded, or if the observational recor

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole Matthew Ginnow, Matt Ginnow  A black hole is a region of spacetime where gravity is so strong that nothing—no particles or even electromagnetic radiation such as light —can escape from it. [1] The theory of general relativity predicts that a sufficiently compact mass can deform spacetime to form a black hole. [2] [3] The boundary of the region from which no escape is possible is called the event horizon . Although the event horizon has an enormous effect on the fate and circumstances of an object crossing it, according to general relativity it has no locally detectable features. [4] In many ways, a black hole acts like an ideal black body , as it reflects no light. [5] [6] Moreover, quantum field theory in curved spacetime predicts that event horizons emit Hawking radiation , with the same spectrum as a black body of a temperature inversely proportional to its mass. This temperature is on the order of billionths of a k

 https://matthewginnow.com/mars/ Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and the second-smallest planet in the Solar System , being larger than only Mercury . In English, Mars carries the name of the Roman god of war and is often referred to as the “ Red Planet “. [16] [17] The latter refers to the effect of the iron oxide prevalent on Mars’s surface, which gives it a reddish appearance distinctive among the astronomical bodies visible to the naked eye. [18] Mars is a terrestrial planet with a thin atmosphere , with surface features reminiscent of the impact craters of the Moon and the valleys, deserts and polar ice caps of Earth . Matthew Ginnow, Matt Ginnow The days and seasons are comparable to those of Earth, because the rotational period as well as the tilt of the rotational axis relative to the ecliptic plane are similar. Mars is the site of Olympus Mons , the largest volcano and highest known mountain on any planet in the Solar System, and of Valles Marineri
