Gorgeous looking Saturn, showing off its auroras. This is a false colour image taken in 2007 by Cassini Spacecraft. Saturnian auroras can change with the angle of the Sun, as the planet rotates & some changes appear related to waves in the magnetosphere likely caused by its moons. Credit in comments

This on Jupter is nicknamed Jovey McJupiterFace, captured by Juno spacecraft. The light zones & reddish brown belts are due to rising swirling hydrogen & helium gas in high pressure zones & falling gas in low pressure regions. Image: NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/MSSS/Jason Major via NASA APOD
This is an image of the planet Uranus taken by the spacecraft Voyager 2 in 1986.
Close up view of Jupiter's largest moon Ganymede, sent back by Juno spacecraft that is orbiting Jupiter. Ganymede is one of Jupiter's 4 Galilean moons and the largest moon in the solar system, larger than the planet Mercury. Check out all the craters on its surface. Image: NASA/SWRI/JPL Caltech/MSSS

Death star or moon? This is one of Saturn's smallest round moons Mimas. The impact that caused that crater nearly destroyed it. Mimas is made of mostly water ice with a little bit of rock. This image was taken by Cassini Spacecraft in 2010. Image: NASA, JPL-Caltech, Space Science Institute, Cassini

The Soviets sent more than a dozen spacecraft to Venus over the course of 30 years as part of their Venera Program. Some missions failed, but many succeeded: Venera 3 was the first spacecraft to crash into another planet, but Venera 9 captured the first images from the surface of another planet. astronomy.com/news/2020/0…
This is the last image captured by spacecraft OSIRIS REx as it left asteroid Bennu after orbiting it for 2 years & collecting soil samples. The samples will reach Earth in 2023. Click on link in comments to read more & see the amazing images in video. Image: NASA/Goddard/University of Arizona

The Blue Marble is an image of Earth taken by the crew of the Apollo 17 spacecraft on its way to the Moon. Flat-Earthers dismiss it by incorrectly asserting that the image covers a too-small area of Earth’s surface, due to their failure to account for the maps’ distortion.

NASA's Juno spacecraft is orbiting Jupiter and its camera just sent back this awesome new photo of the planet. You can see the famous storm The Great Red Spot in the top right corner and other smaller storms known as white spots. Image: NASA/JPL-Caltech
After Breathtaking Images and Stupendous Discoveries, Spacecraft Juno Gets 4 More Years to Explore Jupiter kqed.org/science/1972554/…
This video shows China's Tianwen-1 orbiter and rover entering Mars orbit on 10 February 2021. The spacecraft captured the images 3 seconds apart, the 54 second video covers a period of 27 minutes. Imaged by an uncalibrated engineering camera, which is why the colours look washed out. vimeo.com/511801232
The Voyager "Sounds of Earth" Record contains sounds and images selected to portray the diversity of life and culture on Earth that went with the Voyager spacecraft launched in 1977
I posted an older image of Jupiter in my last post. This is the latest one captured by the Juno spacecraft, where you can see the great red storm. NASA/JPL-Caltech.
Observing Jupiter with naked eyes from a spaceship: Would it look the same as the voyager spacecraft images?
The Voyager pictures of Jupiter are vibrantly colored with sharply contrasting cloud layers. However, I read that Venus is less impressive than many pictures might suggest, because NASA or whoever enhance the images to emphasize complexities of the atmosphere that wouldn't be visible to human eyes.
I also saw this picture labeled a true color resolution, and it shows Jupiter to be quite bland. I can image cloud layers of helium and hydrogen not being very vibrant.
Long story short: would Jupiter look closer to the vibrant images from voyager or the duller true color image I posted above.
I must know this answer!
