Summary edit

Description
English: The Uranus system seen in November 2002 and in August 2007 when the rings appeared edge-on and are therefore not so visible anymore. The image of 2002 was taken with ISAAC on the VLT while the one of 2007 was taken with NACO and made use of adaptive optics. This explains why the 2007 image is much more detailed.
Français : Le système uranien vu en novembre 2002 et en août 2007 lorsque les anneaux étaient vus de côté et n'étaient donc que peu visibles. L'image de 2002 a été prise avec ISAAC sur le VLT alors que celle de 2007 fut prise avec NACO et utilisa une optique adptative. Ceci explique que l'image de 2007 soit bien plus détaillée.
