AKIKO FUJITA: It's time now to take a quick detour, our look at the hidden headlines you should know. And this one is literally out of this world. NASA has released new images of Neptune from the James Webb Space Telescope, showing off some of the planet's rings. NASA said the telescope's advanced technology captured the clearest view of Neptune's rings in over 30 years since NASA's Voyager 2 captured the rings during a flyby in 1989.
