I still think some of the pix taken by Hubbel of Saturn are some of the most incredible photos ever taken, anywhere.

The Hubble pictures of Saturn are indeed spectacular.

For those who don’t know:

Hubble is a primarily visible light instrument. It is sensitive from 100nm to 1800 nm (.1 to 1.8 micron), or ultraviolet through near infrared. Webb is an infrared instrument. It’s sensitivity is from .6 micron through 28 micron, or orange through very far infrared. JWST covers a vastly wider, and in some ways scientifically more interesting spectral range than Hubble.
