Why not be messy and muddled? Wherefore the urge for order?

Enough. I'm often blown away by the fact that people negotiate sidewalk traffic.
I know what you mean. I can spend hours looking at deep-space photos wondering whaaaaat?

As far as the Saturn pole: The #1 Rule of the universe is that Entropy Increases. So, how does increasing entropy, and chaotic weather systems(see all the little cyclones in that picture?) create massive order?

On Jupiter, they organize differently.
