"Unveiling the Mysteries of Saturn and Uranus Auroras with James Webb Telescope"

TL;DR Summary
The James Webb Space Telescope will study the auroras of Uranus and Saturn, led by two separate teams of astronomers at the University of Leicester. The aim is to understand the processes that create these polar light shows over different planets, potentially shedding light on the mystery of why gas giant planets are hotter than expected. The study will use the telescope's highly sensitive Near-Infrared Camera instrument to capture images and monitor the auroral energies of these distant planets, with potential implications for understanding auroras on Earth and beyond.
