See the ice giant's ring system, bright moons and dynamic atmosphere in this amazing image by JWST. The telescope also reveals the polar cap and clouds of Uranus, which are changing with the seasons.
This image of Uranus from NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) on NASA's James Webb Space Telescope shows the planet and its rings in new clarity. The Webb image exquisitely captures Uranus’s seasonal north polar cap, including the bright, white, inner cap and the dark lane in the bottom of the polar cap. Uranus’ dim inner and outer rings are also ...
Nine of Uranus’s 27 moons can be seen surrounding the planet in the new image, shining like pearls. Individual astronomers discovered the ice giant’s five largest moons between 1787 and 1948.
See Uranus and its rings in new clarity from NIRCam on the James Webb Space Telescope. The image shows the planet's seasonal north polar cap, the dim inner and outer rings, and 9 of its 27 moons.
This zoomed-in image of Uranus, captured by Webb’s Near-Infrared Camera on 6 February 2023, reveals stunning views of the planet’s rings.The planet displays a blue hue in this representative-colour image, made by combining data from two filters (F140M, F300M) at 1.4 and 3.0 microns, shown here as blue and orange, respectively.
This image of Uranus from NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) on NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope shows the planet and its rings in new clarity. The planet’s seasonal north polar cap gleams in a bright white, and Webb’s exquisite sensitivity resolves Uranus’ dim inner and outer rings, including the Zeta ring—the extremely faint and diffuse ...
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured a stunning image of the solar system’s seventh planet, Uranus, which showcases its dramatic rings and bright features in the planet’s atmosphere.. The image, which was taken by Webb’s Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam), combines data from two filters at 1.4 and 3.0 microns, shown in blue and orange, respectively.

Webb’s infrared image highlights the planet’s dramatic rings and dynamic atmosphere. Following in the footsteps of the Neptune image released in 2022, the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope has taken a stunning image of the solar system’s other ice giant, the planet Uranus. The new image features dramatic rings as well as bright features in the planet’s atmosphere.
Uranus’s dim inner and outer rings are also visible in this image, including the elusive Zeta ring – the extremely faint and diffuse ring closest to the planet. This Webb image also shows nine of the planet’s 27 moons. They are the blue dots that surround the planet’s rings. Clockwise starting at 2 o’clock, they are: Rosalind, Puck ...
The image of the day is indeed the famous breathtaking image of Uranus that reveals the planet in stunning detail like never before. The image showcases Uranus’s dynamic north polar cap, a feature that stands out in sharp contrast to the planet's surrounding atmosphere. Unlike Earth, where polar ice caps are primarily composed of water,
The new image features dramatic rings as well as bright features in the planet’s atmosphere. The new Webb data of Uranus offer exquisite sensitivity, revealing the faintest dusty rings. The seventh planet from the Sun, Uranus is strange: it rotates on its side, at a nearly 90-degree angle from the plane of its orbit.
NASA has just released new images of Uranus. Captured by JWST, the images show incredible details of the planet and its surrounding rings and moons. ... JWST has given us an incredibly clear ...
