Uranus is considered an Ice Giant because of its sub-zero temperatures and it
its high composition of ice.
Edit: It isn't quite that simple. The "ices" will be at a high temperature deep
inside Uranus. But the very high pressures there keep them as solids. It's
an example of how scientists use words in ways that can mislead people.
