Title: Uranus has rings
Post by Jovial Monk on Apr 14th, 2023 at 10:41am



Quote:
Uranus and its dusty rings have been captured by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) in exquisite detail, along with clouds and a polar cap.

The rings around Uranus are difficult to see with most telescopes because the dark rocks and dust that form them reflect little of the sun’s light. Only two telescopes have imaged the rings directly, one aboard the Voyager 2 spacecraft during a flyby in 1986 and the Earth-based Keck Observatory in Hawaii.

Did I say people hadn’t known about the rings of Uranus?
