Am I the only immature one who laughed at the title?

I was recently diagnosed with rectal cancer. Damn near everyone's got high res images by now, why not James Webb too.

My Ph.D. work was on a robot called Uranus. Let's just say it was the butt of many jokes. Like when my advisor was fixing it once, and I said "get your head out of Uranus!"

Was that deliberate? Just randomly curious!

[andrew-dc]

Absolutely opened the comments for the jokes....

We'll just have to wait for it to be re-named in 2620

Why wait until the ass-end of civilization?

They knew exactly what they were doing. All the work put into that telescope was just building up to this very day.

To be fair — and unfortunately — the original title is different: “NASA's Webb Rings in the Holidays with the Ringed Planet Uranus”.

The submitter actually changed it from the original title (unless the title has been updated since it was submitted).

[alex_young]

Not quite the same ring as the original title of "NASA's Webb Rings in the Holidays with the Ringed Planet Uranus", but the rings are off a bit from your normal planet, so maybe that's OK?

We really need a national program in the US to change the pronunciation. It would be more accurate to actually pronounce it "ooranus".

...butt yes I giggled.

I learned to prounounce it like "Yer-in-us" -- which results in different jokes, at least.

[userbinator]

I think it's a base human nature to find humour in such things.

As the saying goes: "You can grow old, but you don't need to grow up."

[adzm]

I'll take this opportunity to say it should be called Caelus
