Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -True, it’s not the only planet with rings. Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune have rings, too. But Saturn’s rings are the biggest and brightest. An astronomer named Galileo was the first person to see Saturn’s rings.

Detailed explanation-2: -Neptune has dark rings made of methane and ammonia ice. Uranus’ rings are dominated by chunky boulders and may consist primarily of rock. Webb will observe how the rings change around their planets, and look for small moons, new rings, and other material around the giant planets.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are four planets in solar system that have rings. These planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

Detailed explanation-4: -Jupiter and Neptune however have rings made primarily of dust. As this is a far poorer reflector of light, their rings are far harder to see, also making them the last two major planetary ring systems to be discovered in this solar system.
