English: This 591-second exposure of the rings of Neptune were taken with the clear filter by the Voyager 2 wide-angle camera. The two main rings are clearly visible and appear complete over the region imaged.
Also visible in this image is the inner faint ring and the faint band which extends smoothly from the ring roughly halfway between the two bright rings. Both of these newly discovered rings are broad and much fainter than the two narrow rings. The bright glare is due to overexposure of the crescent on Neptune. Numerous bright stars are evident in the background. Both bright rings have material throughout their entire orbit, and are therefore continuous.Deutsch: Diese Aufnahme 591 Sekunden (Belichtung 591 Sekunden) der Ringe Neptuns wurde mit dem Klarfilter der Voyager 2 „wide-angle camera“ gemacht. Die zwei Ringe sind klar erkennbar und erscheinen über die abgelichtete Region vollständig. Auch ist in diesem Bild der innere matte Ring und das zarte Band sichtbar, das sich vom Ring in halber Breite zwischen den zwei helleren Ringen erstreckt. Beide dieser neu entdeckten Ringe sind breit und viel matter bzw. dunkler als die zwei inneren Ringe.
Der helle Glanz ist aufgrund der Überbelichtung des Neptuns, der als Sichel erscheint, aufgetreten. Viele hellere Sterne sind im Hintergrund zu sehen. Beide Ringe haben Material über den ganzen Umfang verteilt und sind daher zusammenhängend. |
