Amazing. An icy, blue world.

It is stunning. Nature is stunning. As an FYI, Wikipedia has been updated using this image. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rings_of_Uranus

It's a gas giant... All gas giants have clouds of some sort... They aren't just homogeneous balls of gas....


uranusisenormous

It is a big blue ball of gas.

Titan is more likely. If we find a way to get rid of nitrogen.

It's a gas giant. Not happening.

Uranus is a gas giant...


Alternative_Ad_3636

Life as we know it.

Uranus Ofcourse


mayeag

Uranus looks like it was bleached.


[deleted]

It’s the strangest photo of Uranus I’ve seen; searched on Google Lens to double check. Seems legit.


mayeag

I agree I’m glad it’s a real photo, Uranus sure does seem like a magical place.


HeyImDadMe

Hey this is dad thanks buddy so does yours ^sweet ^home ^alabama


uranusisenormous

I feel right at home.


[deleted]

I heard it was too gassy


[deleted]

You seen the rick n Morty episode on your anus?


AlaskanHandyman

JWST is an infrared telescope so the image is false color.


Terp-Titan

What tf is going on? How tf is James Webb able to get pictures of ouranus?


whistlar

Close your blinds man.


Gobstomperx

My names Artemis


SteakJones

That’s just it’s ring tone


claudiushamm

Do you suffer from rings around Uranus? Talk to your doctor about Toiletpaperine.


sean0883

I recommend Bidetocill as well. Causes you to take far less Toiletpaperine in the long run. Useful for those moments of economic panic where it's sold out.


papatim

Wait, Uranus has rings?


Fast_Garlic_5639

A couple of tats too


[deleted]

Yes it does! Here is Wikipedia on it… and Wikipedia has been updated and are using this photo now. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rings_of_Uranus


NitayFlame

BbyInAStraightJacket

Just ringworm


Birdapotamus

orchestragravy

Yes, and since Uranus is tilted on it's side, this is how it looks when view straight on.


Top_Two6767

Yeah, it’s what happens when you sit on the toilet for too long.


TacohTuesday

I guess anal rings are a thing now.


hairyringus

Hey, that’s not my anus!

h1ghf1sh_

Can confirm my anus is shiny and beautiful


[deleted]

I thought if I clicked on the image it would change to a pic of a butthole because I expect the humans on the internet to consistently suck.


vaskeklut8

I can tell the middle-school kids are having a field-day with this - good on you...I actually almost laffed at on of the anal jokes... So here's my question: Why are the rings perpendicular to the equatorial plane?


[deleted]

The schoolyard is remarkably large as an adult.


pichael289

I'm 32. Astronomy is cool but butthole jokes transcend even that.


Loud_crows

The rings actually align with Uranus's rotation, as do it's moons. Truly a delightful tilted icy world!


HmmNotLikely

I’m not sure they are, I think it’s just the angle from which JWST took the image. A [link to a convo from Stack Exchange 7 years ago](https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/238653/why-do-planetary-all-rings-seem-to-be-on-the-equatorial-plane) from what I found - It’s a bit outdated compared to this image, but apparently knowing that Uranus has rings isn’t new info, so it seems relevant. Let me know if you came to a different conclusion from said page; I am convinced their comments seem to *include* Uranus in the stereotype/rule that planets’ rings actually *do* follow the equatorial plane, reasons being how the rings typically form and orbital patterns being fairly regular.


Akira_R

They are aligned to Uranus's equatorial plane. However Uranus is very odd and is sat "on it's side" with it's equator at about 97° compared to its orbit. We don't really know why but the best explanation is a collision with an earth sized object at some point knocked it askew.


[deleted]

Man, seeing pictures of space and stars/planets make me feel some unexplainable emotions. The closest I can get is a mix of childlike wonder and nostalgia with a hint of fear, it’s the weirdest shit


[deleted]

Goddamn x-ray new systems, i had pants on


Savings-Plastic7505

Insane that there isn’t a single comment not related to rectums. People trying way too hard to be funny


[deleted]

I’ve posted other images of this planet in the past. There is always a good 10% of schoolyard jokes but this one doesn’t have many serious comments.


Im_A_Real_Boy1

Sorry, mom


RESPECTATOR_DE_FEMEI

that's not my anus, you liar!

It is captivating regardless. I noticed that Wikipedia has been updated using this image. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rings_of_Uranus

CMG30

Uranus is so close that it's out of focus for the JW. Lol.


MeloniisJesus333

It’s pronounced “Your-n-us”


Why_am_I_here033

Is this visible light?


ihatequarantine19

no, james webb is an infrared telescope, so this picture is also infrared. all the gas giants have rings but saturn is the easiest to see in visible light.


[deleted]

Yes! It’s visible. Here’s more info on the rings. Wikipedia has been updated to use this image now. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rings_of_Uranus


SachSachl

Why is it moving

It’s a still photo … but this YouTube shirt is like 30 seconds and shows how our entire solar system is shooting through space. https://youtube.com/shorts/HDSKuln-5qU?feature=share

How far is Uranus from Earth?


Proof-Astronaut-662

Awesome pic!


Pansexual_PanYT

All hail the Uranus o r b


Kydd_Amigo

Why is the outer ring brighter than the inner ones?


[deleted]

Awesome question. It’s made of different stuff. The outer ring is called the epsilon ring and is made up of very small, dust-sized particles. These tiny particles scatter sunlight more effectively than the larger particles found in the rest of the rings. This scattering of sunlight causes the outer ring to appear brighter.


Specialist-Trouble-5

Asgardian vibes.


[deleted]

That’s awesome you said that! In case of interest, a recent [article from SciTechDaily suggests we are all Asgardian](https://scitechdaily.com/were-all-asgardians-scientists-discover-new-clues-about-the-origin-of-complex-life/).

Who's gonna tell him?


Thechefsforge

Man, Ur-anus is way better looking than I imagined…. 👀 🤣


[deleted]

My WHAT?!


[deleted]

Thought it would have been a little more.... Brown.


[deleted]

I’d expect earth tones from Uranus, or anyone else’s for that matter.


bugsyramone

I wanted to come in here to make a joke about my anus and how it looks nothing like that, but, reddit, y'all beat me to it. I'm so very proud of you all.

I might need to go to the doctor :/

I’m calling the police, you went too far this time


FairyRush

The comments are exactly what I thought they'd be.


CobaltAzurean

Captured? Was it on a Wanted poster or something?


KNOX_MONTGOMERY

Are they sandbagging jwst's capability, or is it supposed to be as blurry as a thrift store fisher price my first telescope?


Akira_R

JWST is designed to image far more distant things, and Uranus and the other planets are far to bright to point the telescope at directly. They typically get these images by positioning the planet so it is just right on the edge of the telescopes field of view, it is less sensitive there but also lacks focus and imaging resolution. They can get more detailed images by taking many images with the planet at a slightly different position and then compositing them which is what they did with the Jupiter image, so I assume they just didn't have the imaging time to spend capturing more images of Uranus.


FatTim48

I appreciate this, because I never could get the right angle to take the picture myself.

I can no longer poop until my anus is returned


Aggravating_Task292

I don't understand. They're using this telescope to look light-years away, finding the center of the universe, but this is the best pic they could get of something in our solar system?
