Jupiter - watching small flake inside the red spot

Spots on planets are common events to observe, it is a happiness for those who capture. Here in this image I managed to capture an event inside the red spot, a “small flake”

These spots are caused by internal or external events, in the case of the big red spot, they can last from seconds to hours or days. Due to its size, it will not affect the characteristics of the Great Red Spot, as happened recently (https://skyandtelescope.org/astronomy-n ... our-scope/).

We will follow up to see the evolution and see images of other amateur astronomers to see how it behaves
