Those rings are probably from poor hygiene.

Fry: Oh, man, this is great! Hey, as long as you don’t make me smell Uranus.
[He laughs.]
Leela: I don’t get it.
Farnsworth: I’m sorry, Fry, but astronomers renamed Uranus in 2620 to end that stupid joke once and for all..
Fry: Oh. What’s it called now?
Farnsworth: Urectum.

Absolutely off-topic... which by the gathering of things, isn't all that uncommon on this thread, based on the predictable responses encountered thus far. Lighten up freepers!

Spamming FR threads, one at a time!

Talk about a hanging curve ball of a headline!

Somebody had fun with this one.

What a huge waste of money. It’s not that expensive to take pictures. A cheap camera will do.

Better yet. Just search on Google or one of those XXX sites.

The JWST has eight diffraction spikes, actually. The two smaller ones are from the secondary mirror supports. You can always tell it’s a JWST picture because of them.

The new pictures offer a rare glimpse of the “elusive” Zeta ring, an extremely faint and diffuse ring closest to the planet — shown in a reddish brown.

We have here a recurrent FR test - is there a shot so cheap you won't take it?

Nope. There's a Dremel tool attachment that works just fine.

Thanks! I never noticed it before, but the star(?) far left in post #9 does show the two minor spikes quite clearly.
