Original Note:
Disinformation, as constantly reposted, The GR Spot is currently roughly 16k km wide. The Earth is roughly 13k km wide. So this illustration shows Earth almost 3x smaller than in reality so misleading. The spot has been this small for at least 7 years and still today. https://hubblesite.org/contents/news-releases/2014/news-2014-24.html
