New images released from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope are revealing Neptune, and the planet's hard-to-detect rings, in a fresh light.

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has seen Neptune in extraordinary detail. The new image shows the planet’s rings, some of its moons and bands of heat around its surface.

Neptune still has its signature blue tint stemming from elements on the planet, such as methane gas, but the JWST can't show them to us. That's not what it was built to do.

Thirty-six years after the first hints of auroral activity on the ice giant, astronomers have captured Neptune’s aurorae for the first time. Thanks to JWST, the planet’s elusive glow has been ...

Hammel and her colleagues used JWST’s NIRSpec, a powerful infrared imaging tool, to capture spectroscopic images of Neptune and analyse the different wavelengths of light emitted by the planet.

By honing in on Mors-Somnus, a binary pair of icy asteroids that originated within the Kuiper Belt, the James Webb Space Telescope has uncovered secrets surrounding the evolution of Neptune and ...
