Original Caption Released with Image:
This view of the Great Red Spot is seen in greatly exaggerated color. The colors do not represent the true hues seen in the Jovian atmosphere but have been produced by special computer processing to enhance subtle variations in both color and shading. JPL manages and controls the Voyager Project for NASA's Office of Space Science.
