What is Uranus atmospheric conditions?

Answer 1

Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun, and the third-largest and fourth most massive planet in the Solar System. It is named after the ancient Greek deity of the sky Uranus (Ancient Greek: Οὐρανός) the father of Kronos (Saturn) and grandfather of Zeus (Jupiter). Though it is visible to the naked eye like the five classical planets, it was never recognized as a planet by ancient observers because of its dimness and slow orbit.[16] Sir William Herschel announced its discovery on March 13, 1781, expanding the known boundaries of the Solar System for the first time in modern history. Uranus was also the first planet discovered with a telescope.
Uranus is similar in composition to Neptune, and both have different compositions from those of the larger gas giants Jupiter and Saturn. As such, astronomers sometimes place them in a separate category, the "ice giants". Uranus's atmosphere, while similar to Jupiter's and Saturn's in being composed primarily of hydrogen and helium, contains a higher proportion of "ices" such as water, ammonia and methane, along with traces of hydrocarbons.[12] It is the coldest planetary atmosphere in the Solar System, with a minimum temperature of 49 K (−224 °C). It has a complex, layered cloud structure, with water thought to make up the lowest clouds, and methane thought to make up the uppermost layer of clouds.[12] In contrast the interior of Uranus is mainly composed of ices and rock.[11]
Like the other giant planets, Uranus has a ring system, a magnetosphere, and numerous moons. The Uranian system has a unique configuration among the planets because its axis of rotation is tilted sideways, nearly into the plane of its revolution about the Sun. As such, its north and south poles lie where most other planets have their equators.[17] Seen from Earth, Uranus's rings can sometimes appear to circle the planet like an archery target and its moons revolve around it like the hands of a clock, though in 2007 and 2008 the rings appeared edge-on. In 1986, images from Voyager 2 showed Uranus as a virtually featureless planet in visible light without the cloud bands or storms associated with the other giants.[17] However, terrestrial observers have seen signs of seasonal change and increased weather activity in recent years as Uranus approached its equinox. The wind speeds on Uranus can reach 250 meters per second (900 km/h, 560 mph).[18]

Answer 2

This is something of a tricky issue. Uranus is a gas planet, which means it has no definite surface. Because of this, scientists define the "surface" of Uranus based on pressure. The official surface is the altitude at which pressure is equal to 1 bar, which is slightly less than average sea level pressure on Earth. The same applies to all gas planets.

Answer 3

Uranus has a thick atmosphere mostly composed of hydrogen and helium, along with some methane. The upper atmosphere consists of clouds of methane ice crystals, which give the planet its blue-green color. The extreme cold temperatures on Uranus, close to -224 degrees Celsius, create unique atmospheric conditions.

Answer 4

the pressure is so great, that liquid & gas merge into slushly transition zone

Answer 5

About 19 psi, 1.3 times that of Earth.

Answer 6

It's 1,984,580 meters of pressure
