From 2014 to 2024, the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has been studying the outer planets under a program called OPAL (Outer Planet Atmospheres Legacy) to obtain long-time baseline observations of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune in order to understand their atmospheric dynamics and evolution. Hubble is the only telescope that can provide high spatial resolution and image stability for global studies of cloud coloration, activity, and atmospheric motion on a consistent time basis to help constrain the underlying mechanics of weather and climate systems.
