Voyager 2 passed about 81,500 kilometers (50,600 miles) from the cloud tops of Uranus during its flyby on January 24, 1986. This close approach allowed the spacecraft to collect valuable data about the planet's atmosphere, rings, and moons. Voyager 2 remains the only spacecraft to have visited Uranus, providing unique insights into this distant ice giant.
