{"product_id":"jupiter-needlepoint-canvas","title":"Jupiter, the Bringer of Jollity","description":"\u003cp\u003eJupiter in banded orange, cream, and dusty violet: the atmosphere drawn into the pale zones and dark belts that wrap the planet, with the Great Red Spot turning in the lower half of the sphere. This needlepoint canvas is built almost entirely from horizontal movement, one band running into the next, and the color shifts by degrees rather than by outline. Part of the Astronomy Collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Great Red Spot is a storm, and it has been watched for a very long time. Astronomers recorded a spot on Jupiter as early as the 1660s, and the continuous record reaches back to 1830—a single weather system that has outlasted every person who ever observed it. It is wide enough to hold the Earth, though it has been narrowing for the past century and a half, and no one yet knows where that will end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinished as a framed miniature, an ornament, or one of a full Astronomy series, this canvas is especially lovely for anyone who has found the four Galilean moons in a pair of binoculars and understood, for a moment, what Galileo saw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDETAILS\u003cbr\u003e— Mesh count: 18\u003cbr\u003e— Skill level: Advanced\u003cbr\u003e— Canvas size: 8 x 8 inches\u003cbr\u003e— Finishing suggestions: Framed miniature, ornament, or a piece in a full Astronomy series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKIT OPTIONS\u003cbr\u003e1.
