Nasa reveals CLEAREST image of Neptune’s rings taken in over three decades featuring visible glowing moons

NASA has revealed the clearest view of Neptune's rings in over 30 years.

It posted four similar stunning images on its Instagram account.

Nasa wrote: "@NASAWebb captured the clearest look at Neptune's rings in 30+ years — our first time seeing them in infrared light.

"Swipe to the second and third images to check out 7 of Neptune’s moons. See that object in the upper left? That’s no star.

"It’s Neptune’s large, unusual moon, Triton! Because Triton is covered in frozen, condensed nitrogen, it reflects 70% of the sunlight that hits it — making it appear very bright to Webb.

"The other 6 moons can be seen as tiny dots surrounding Neptune and its rings."

Nasa has credited its powerful James Webb Space Telescope with the images.

Neptune has seven moons and all can be spotted in the zoomed-out image.

The US space agency added: "Neptune’s moon Triton, resembling a small teal snowflake, is the central focal point, with a tiny ringed, pearl-like Neptune below and to the right of it.

"The black background is filled with galaxies, 8-pointed bright objects and dots.

"A small white spiral galaxy in the bottom left corner is particularly visible."

The Instagram post has almost amassed one million likes in just two hours.

Nasa is hoping to produce even more stunning images with the James Webb Space Telescope.

It says it will offer humans an unprecedented look at the universe.
