Here is cold, lonely Neptune floating in the distance seen in red and near-infrared light.

| Description |
English: Here is cold, lonely Neptune floating in the distance seen in red and near-infrared light. I tried to process it similarly to my Uranus image, but without the rings to contend with, I could ease off the glow around the planet a lot more smoothly, so the planet doesn't look as much like it's floating in a haze. If you flip back and forth between this and the Uranus image, you can see how they compare in size to one another as they are presented in appropriate relative sizes as they appeared to the telescope. Both are scaled up 200%. This was imaged on 2017-10-07 at around 12:14 UTC
The OPAL project has a page containing several years' worth of data, including map-projected images. You can check it out or maybe make your own maps if you are into that sort of thing here: archive.stsci.edu/prepds/opal/ Data from the following proposal were used to create this image: Hubble 2020: Outer Planet Atmospheres Legacy (OPAL) Program Red: WFC3/UVIS F845M Green: WFC3/UVIS F763M Blue: WFC3/UVIS F657N North is up. |
