The rings of Uranus. Creator: NASA.

The rings of Uranus. The 9 main rings of Uranus are visible here as horizontal lines. The fainter, pastel lines seen between the rings are artifacts of computer enhancement. Six narrow-angle images were used to extract colour information from the extremely dark and faint rings. The final image was made from three colour averages and represents an enhanced, false-colour view. The image shows that the brightest, or epsilon ring at top is neutral in colour, with the fainter 8 remaining rings showing slight colour differences between them.
