“… in the stunning Webb [near IR] view, the planet's dark and ghostly appearance is due to atmospheric methane that absorbs infrared light… Coated with frozen nitrogen, Neptune's largest moon Triton is brighter than Neptune in reflected sunlight, seen at the upper left sporting the Webb telescope's characteristic diffraction spikes. Including Triton, seven of Neptune's 14 known moons can be identified in the field of view.”
