NASA's James Webb Space Telescope captured Uranus, revealing dramatic rings and atmospheric features in unprecedented detail.
, uncovering never-before-seen subtleties of the planet's iconic rings. The pictures, released on Thursday, mark one more achievement for the $10 billion space observatory sent off in December 2021., which is equipped for catching the light at frequencies that are imperceptible to the unaided eye. This permitted the telescope to see through the murkiness that encompasses Uranus and catch definite pictures of the planet's rings.
"The new images from Webb will allow us to study the rings in much greater detail than ever before, and help us answer some of the most fundamental questions about our solar system."The images of Uranus are just the latest in a series of stunning images captured by the Webb telescope since its launch. In January, the telescope captured its first images of the Orion Nebula, a massive cloud of gas and dust about 1,500 light-years from Earth.
