Tiny Moon NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has spotted a tiny moon orbiting Uranus, expanding the number of the planet's known satellites to 29. In early February, the space observatory's Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) caught the minuscule and still-unnamed object orbiting Uranus' center at a distance of 35,000 miles. "It’s a small moon but a significant discovery, which is something that even NASA’s Voyager 2 spacecraft didn’t see during its flyby nearly 40 years ago," said Southwest Research Institute lead scientist Maryame El Moutamid in a NASA statement. Scientists estimate it's just six miles in diameter, which could explain why the [...]
