True age of Jupiter's Great Red Spot REVEALED
Briefly

Researchers revealed Jupiter's Great Red Spot, thought to be discovered in 1665, is 190 years old, shrinking from 24,200 to 8,700 miles and may eventually vanish.
Study suggests the 'Permanent Spot' observed by Cassini in the 17th Century disappeared between 18th and 19th centuries, making the current Great Red Spot younger, over 190 years old.
