Processed a superior version of the image I cobbled together last year. Now the brightest part of the Epsilon ring (at the 9 o'clock position) is more much evident:

> Scientists originally missed the find because the reddish dusty ring closest to Uranus wasn't visible in any individual image — Regan had to combine a host of images together for the feature to appear. "He took hundreds of images, stacked them together, to produce this image of the Uranian system," Hedman said. "This is the most comprehensive view of the zeta ring that exists and we didn't know it was in the Voyager data for decades."

Very cool, Ian!

Does anybody with a subscription to Sky and Telescope know if the recovery of the Zeta ring was reported in any of the issues published late 2022 / early 2023?

Webb at it again with the 7th planet:

The annotated wide field is especially stunning, fabulous sense of depth and scale

with those distant galaxies in the far far background, but also an active atmosphere

and a lot of moons visible on the closeup
