Notice how Jupiter is not a sphere. It's an oblate spheroid. Jupiter spins extremely fast, once in about 10 hours. This creates a strong outward centrifugal force at the equator, causing the planet to bulge outward there. This is the reason for its shape. You can also see a dot on the right, it is Europa, one of Jupiter's moons. Notice its shadow on the left edge. Eclipses on Jupiter are much more common than on Earth.
