NASA's New Horizons Spacecraft Pluto Flyby

Feb. 26 Rings Circle the Planet Uranus: The newly discovered rings round the planet Uranus are shown in this artist's impression based on the brilliant work of detection by Dr. James Elliot and his team at Cornell University, New York. Uranus never comes to closer than 1, 690 million miles to Earth, and the rings far thinner than these round Saturn are too faint to be seen. This discovery of the rings was unexpected and the first major structures find in the solar system since the discovery of Pluto in 1930
