The sky on
your birthday.
Neon Saturn
Saturn glows in infrared light, here shown in false colors. While the planet itself appears dark in the bluest infrared band, its thin rings brightly reflect sunlight. The B ring is so thick that it absorbs much of the reflected light. This composite image highlights different features of the giant ringed planet, making it look like a neon sign.
