Description

Creating a full map of Jupiter has been a dream of ours, but seamlessly catching all longitudes of Saturn's northern hemisphere was mostly an "accident".

Notes:

  • There's an outbreak at high latitudes near 180° longitude.
  • The secondary outbreak has drifted about -30° since the previous map.
