05. How does Jupiter get its color? (A K2S Question)
From The Space Library
The color of the atmosphere is related to its composition. Unlike Earth, where only water condenses to form clouds, Jupiter's clouds are made of many elements and compounds. The upward and downward movement of these clouds mixes these substances, resulting in clouds of varying colors and heights.
