A massive hurricane at Saturn's north pole is coming into sharper focus than ever before thanks to new close-up imagery and video released today by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The storm, which has cloud speeds up to 330 miles per hour and an eye that's 1,250 miles wide — about 20 times the size of an average hurricane eye on Earth, or about half the size of Australia — has been active for an indeterminate number of years, according to NASA.
