A new treatment of images collected by Voyager 2 in the late 1980s using data from the Hubble Space Telescope has revealed the actual colors of the solar system's distant ice giants, Neptune and Uranus.
This is what life is now. One by one, every little piece of wonder being ripped away that makes the universe feel magical. I could’ve never imagined that someone could change what a planet looks like. You should not have posted this OP, it made me feel a bit depressed.
That’s a weird takeaway from this. I rather took it as a reminder that even in our own solar system, there’s still surprises waiting for us, and there’s so much more to explore. Doesn’t take away from the wonder at all for me.
Eh, I guess learning about the solar system was something that I was really bewondered by especially as a child. And the unique, iconic deep blue I’ve grown to know is just part of the fundamental things of how the world should be. It is cool that we continue to find new things but it’s also a bit more bland and less special as a result. More of an emotional thought than a rational one.
