An old image of Jupiter captured by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has started doing rounds on the internet for a different reason altogether. A Twitter user shared the image of Jupiter, taken from the narrow-angle camera onboard NASA's Cassini spacecraft, saying that’s how it looks from the bottom.

Netizens call it 'sizzling dosa'

The photograph was quote tweeted by Sonal Dabral asking netizens whether they also think it is an image of dosa and not some planet from our Solar system. Dabral’s retweet caught the attention of Twitterati, agreeing with him that it was rather a dosa and not Jupiter. The tweet has garnered over 33k likes and almost 6k retweets so far.
