The James Webb telescope is well known for taking images ‘where the sun doesn’t shine’ in faraway space. And this time it hasn’t disappointed us. The latest image from the NASA telescope is a deep dive into our solar system showing a beautiful aqua-tinted view of the planet Uranus surrounded by its 13 rings (11 of which are visible).
We are fairly used to seeing its neighbour Saturn with its extensive concentric rings. However, Uranus also has its own, made up of ice and rocks. The outermost ring is the brightest. This is because it is made almost entirely of ice boulders that reflect light from the Sun.
