NASA's Webb Telescope Unveils a Tiny New Moon Orbiting Uranus
In a groundbreaking discovery, NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has identified a new tiny moon orbiting Uranus, provisionally named S/2025 U1. Measuring just 6 miles in diameter, this moon was too faint for previous missions like Voyager 2 to detect. The discovery was made using the near-infrared camera on JWST during observations on February 2, 2025, and reveals a more complex Uranian system than previously understood.
