The Secrets of Jupiter: Strange Planets

This space documentary journeys to Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, and its most famous feature, the Great Red Spot. That colossal storm, wider than Earth, has churned for centuries, and the film explores what scientists know and still cannot explain about it. It surveys the gas giant's crushing atmosphere, swirling bands and powerful magnetic field, drawing on modern observation and imagery. For anyone curious about the strange worlds beyond our own, it is an absorbing tour of a genuinely alien planet. Free to stream in 4K on Dr Documentary.
