NAS's James Webb Space Telescope has captured Neptune’s glowing auroras in the best detail yet. Hints of auroras were first faintly detected in ultraviolet light during a flyby of the Voyager 2 spacecraft in 1989.

NASA’s James Webb telescope is offering a new look at Neptune’s aurora, leading to a new mystery involving the eighth planet from the sun.

For the first time ever, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope—humanity’s most powerful eye in space—has captured auroras on Neptune in dazzling detail. Auroras are an atmospheric phenomenon that occurs when electrically charged particles from the Sun hit gas atoms in a planet’s atmosphere.
