Description
Hubble Space Telescope image of the planet Uranus, captured in 2003. The area outside the planet was enhanced in brightness to reveal the faint rings and several of its satellites. The outermost ring is brighter on the lower side, where it is wider. It is made of dust and small pebbles, which create a thin, dark, and almost vertical line across the right side of Uranus. The bright satellite on the lower right corner is Ariel, which has a snowy white surface. Five small satellites with dark surfaces can be seen just outside the rings. Clockwise from the top, they are Desdemona, Belinda, Portia, Cressida, and Puck.
