TL;DR Summary

NASA's Juno spacecraft captured an image of unique cloud formations in Jupiter's far northern region, known as Jet N7, which resembles an "eerie face." The image shows turbulent clouds and storms along Jupiter's terminator, highlighting the complex topography of the area. NASA explains that the perception of a face in the image is an example of pareidolia, where observers see patterns in random formations. The image was taken by citizen scientist Vladimir Tarasov using raw data from JunoCam when the spacecraft was approximately 4,800 miles above Jupiter's cloud tops.
