The most unique form of the farthest planet in our solar system
The James Webb Space Telescope has presented a unique view of Uranus, the seventh planet in our solar system, which has never been seen before.
The most remarkable aspect of the image released by NASA is the colors visible around Uranus, which are not typically seen.
Although the James Webb Space Telescope is known for capturing images of distant and awe-inspiring parts of the universe, it is now revealing new details about our solar system.
The first image of Uranus, the seventh planet in our solar system, was captured by Voyager 2 in 1986, showing a playful blue-colored planet.
However, the James Webb Telescope has preserved elements of Uranus not visible to the naked eye through Near Infrared Technology.
NASA released an image of Uranus taken by James Webb in April, but the new image provides more details.
In this new image taken in September, the colors around Uranus continue to shimmer, and some of its 27 moons (depicted as blue dots) can be seen.
A special feature of this image is the view of its North Pole.
The image also shows a glimpse of the planet's atmosphere, and storms are visible in the polar region.
Keep in mind that, in terms of volume, Uranus is the third planet in our solar system, but in terms of mass, it is the fourth largest.
Uranus is a unique planet that rotates around its orbit in a tilted manner.
One year on Uranus is equivalent to 84 Earth years, but a day there is only 17 hours long.
NASA is planning a future mission to Uranus because much is still unknown about this planet.
For this purpose, the assistance of the James Webb Space Telescope will also be sought.
