James Webb Looks at the Rings Around Uranus

a reply to: chr0naut

Oh, Trojans and la grange point objects don't count.

Have tons of those. But they don't orbit earth. They orbit the sun in 1:1 resonance with earth.

I knew if we told him to stand still long enough, they eventually get a picture!

Seriously though, pretty picture!

Sure looks like animated to me? I am really start to question NASA. Wouldn't you?

I wonder why the Earth has only two identified moons,

TWO? When did the second one show up?

I just checked, we lost it again:

2020 CD3

That sounds suspicious , " twilight tune"

The image looks the way it does because it isn't an optical light image ,Webb uses the infrared light spectrum to take its images which allows it to see through dust and gas clouds and to see details not visible optically.

I think it's about time we probed Uranus!

So wait… they are using it to see the gas clouds from Uranus? 😂

Maybe Genesis 1:16 came to mind.

Sorry I took so long??
