Wreathed in concentric rings of icy debris, Saturn is one of the most iconic planets in our solar system. However, since their discovery nearly 400 years ago, the origin of Saturn's rings — their age and how they came to be — have remained largely a mystery.
Just how Saturn's rings could be so young has puzzled planetary scientists for decades.
See elusive planet Neptune in opposition tonight (Sept. 16) | Space
On Friday (Sept. 16), skywatchers will get the opportunity to view Neptune in opposition as it moves opposite the sun in the night sky.

Roland Emmerich Had To Resort To Plan B For Moonfall's Zero-Gravity Acting Classes
The premise of "Moonfall" is simple. Earth's moon is falling from its orbit, causing flooding and weird gravitational anomalies all over the world.
Much of the action sequences in "Moonfall" center on the shifting of gravity. Not only are several scenes set aboard space shuttles or on the lunar surface, but as the moon passes closer and closer to Earth, its gravity begins lifting people — and buildings — off the ground.

The Sky This Week from September 16 to 23 | Astronomy.com
Friday, September 16
The solar system’s most distant planet, Neptune, reaches opposition at 6 P.M. EDT. It’s located in far northeastern Aquarius, near the border of that constellation and nearby Pisces, where Jupiter sits.
The best time to look is late evening, when the sky is dark and Neptune has risen a decent amount above the horizon. Look east and locate the Circlet of Pisces, a seven-star asterism in western Pisces. The Circlet’s southeasternmost star is magnitude 4.5 Lambda (λ) Piscium.
Mars is mighty in first Webb observations of Red Planet
Because it is so close, the Red Planet is one of the brightest objects in the night sky in terms of both visible light, which human eyes can see, and the infrared light that Webb is designed to detect.
Webb's first images of Mars, captured by the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam), show a region of the planet's eastern hemisphere at two different wavelengths, or colors of infrared light.
These are all the planets that the James Webb Space Telescope has observed so far | Salon.com
When the James Webb Space Telescope revealed its first five images to the public in July, the scientific community was amazed. The ambitious project had involved decades of work , and it had paid off with some of the most detailed images of the distant universe ever put together.
Flagstaff day: Logging, Route 66 and an ... claim to fame – St George ...
