"Webb Telescope Reveals Stunning Images of Saturn's Luminous Rings"

TL;DR Summary
The Webb Space Telescope has captured an image of Saturn, completing its photo album of the solar system's gas giants. The image shows Saturn's dark appearance due to methane absorption, while its luminous rings and the Cassini division are also visible. The image also includes the Saturnian satellites Dione, Tethys, and Enceladus, the latter of which has a subsurface ocean and recently had phosphorus detected in its water. The Webb Telescope's insights provide valuable information until a dedicated mission to Enceladus can be launched.
