Summary
The image is a merge of two images of Uranian rings obtained by Voyager 2 spacecraft in 1986. The forward-scattering image (left) shows dust in the ring system; while back-scattering image (right) shows distribution of larger bodies. α and β rings are matched. The difference in the position of the ε ring is caused by its eccentricity.
