米航空宇宙局（ＮAＳＡ）のジェームズ・ウェッブ宇宙望遠鏡が、「巨大氷惑星」と呼ばれる天王星の新たな姿を捉えました
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured a new look at the ’icy giant’ Uranus.
The stunning image shows nearly all of Uranus’ faint rings of dust
ＮAＳＡによれば、今回の画像にはウェッブ望遠鏡の感度の高さが表れています
According to NASA, this image shows the sensitivity of the Webb telescope.
The fainter rings have so far been seen only by the Voyager 2 spacecraft and the Keck Observatory, which sits atop Mauna Kea in Hawaii.
天王星で存在の知られている環は１３個です
Uranus has 13 known rings
A new image from the Webb telescope shows 11 of them.
Nine are classified as main rings, but the other two are more difficult to capture due to their dust-like nature and were first discovered by Voyager 2’s flyby in 1986.
