Jupiter's new blue ring
What do you make of this?

http://www.atsnn.com/story/36924.html

Something interesting is happening on the planet Jupiter, and astronomers are not yet sure what it could mean. About two weeks ago, a Spanish amateur astronomer noticed a large blue streak in the southern hemisphere of the planet. The blue streak, which is 3-4 times the diameter of the earth, has now stretched around the planet forming a blue ring.

It is a very elongated, bluish streak that runs along the interface of the dark South Equatorial Belt.

5. I'm a little scared
If any black obelisks start showing up on earth, I'm staying away from computers.
