Exceptional infrared observation of Saturn and Neptune's rings by NASA
Low estimate
High estimate
NASA. Exceptional clear infrared observation of Saturn's rings. The planet appears through a ghostly, ethereal image, with its bands of dust, rings and moons. (Some of these rings have not been detected since the Voyager 2 flyby in 1989). In visible light, Neptune appears blue due to the small quantities of methane present in its atmosphere. Here, Webb's NIRCam instrument observed Neptune at near-infrared wavelengths, so Neptune doesn't look so blue!
