Good morning. It’s December 19, and as we get closer to the year-end holidays your humble space correspondent is starting to get a little stir-crazy. Hence the reason for today’s abdominal, I mean abominable, headline.<\/p>\n

This amazingly cool image of Uranus comes from the Near-Infrared Camera<\/a> on the James Webb Space Telescope. This wide-field image shows Uranus with an assortment of background galaxies and 14 of its 27 moons, including Oberon and Titania. We can also see the north polar cap gleaming a bright white, as well as the planet’s rather faint (in visible light) inner and outer rings.<\/p>\n

I’ve also included the close-up image of Uranus, which is really quite stunning with all of its various rings. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
