Observations of Jupiter were made between February and June of 2007 to provide an expanded spectral coverage and timeline for the New Horizons remote-sensing of Jupiter's atmosphere. From March to May, two prominent vertical jets in the southern portion of Jupiter's North Temperate Belt (NTBs) initiated a major darkening of this region, and their wakes restored the darker color of the belt but not its bright 5-micron appearance. A brightening of the southern component of the dark South Equatorial Belt (SEBs) was interrupted by a series of vertical outbursts from which a darker material emanated in both directions was appeared bright at 5 microns.It also generated a series of anticyclonic vortices with upwelling interiors and substantial downwelling annuli which continue to this writing.
