Scientific paper
A summary of observations of Jupiter made over a year from 16 different observatories is presented. Turbulent zones in the south south temperate belt were observed to have white regions, also turbulent, which sometimes ruptured. White oval spots were tracked in the south temperate belt, and a persistent spacing among the ovals is noted for several months. The southern part of the Great Red Spot was continually darker than the northern part for the full observation period. The reappearance of a fourth oval spot in the south temperate belt, a large number of white spots near the Great Red Spot in the south equatorial belt, and the near disappearance of the north temperate belt except for a few dark regions are noted.
