You may be surprised to learn that the spot varies in size. Sometimes it is only 12,000 miles long, and sometimes it is 24,000 miles long. It is an oval shape, and the short distance across the oval is about half the length (6,000 to 12,000 miles across). Earth is about 8,000 miles across, so that makes it smaller than the red spot.
