Best Answer

Uranus is an ice giant (a separate classification from gas giant, but mainly the same), so technically there is no land. The mantle is a hot and dense ocean of water and ammonia, and beneath that there is the core, which is half the size of Earth and mostly comprised of silicon. So if you wanted land on Uranus, you would have to travel roughly 15x103km down, then survive on the core with temperatures around 5000oC, and pressures of 8 million bars.

Its solid core is composed of metals and silicate rock, and the core is in turn covered an icy mantle of methane ammonia and water ice. Uranus, like Jupiter and Saturn, has a system of rings, total of 11. But, the ring system is much more complex than that of Jupiter, but less so than Saturn's spectacular system. The system around Uranus seems to be relatively young and probably did not form at the same time as the planet. The particles that make up the rings may be the remnants of a moon that was either broken by a high velocity impact or torn apart by the gravitational effects of Uranus.

It is supposed to be made of helium, hydrogen, water, ammonia, hydrocarbons and methane ice.

The planet Uranus has no surface. It is a "gas giant", a planet formed entirely of gas.

Uranus is known as a "gas giant" or "ice giant" and does not have land masses like the Earth does. There is no known life on Uranus.


Has there been any land slides on Uranus?

No, Uranus is completely gaseous and has no land that would slide. Walking on Uranus would be like walking on a cloud, only much stinkier because there is a lot of methane.


Are there any landforms in Uranus?

No there are not. There is no land in Uranus. It is a gas planet.


Does Uranus have land?

The planet Uranus does not have land....Jupiter,Satern,URANUS, and Neptune are all gas planets. Gas planets are planets that are made up of gas and liquids..which makes it impossible to land foot in it. So the planet Uranus does not have land


What is uranus's landscape like?

Uranus doesn't really have a surface. It is a huge ball of ice, liquid and gasses. No one has been able to land on the surface of Uranus because it is not solid enough to support weight.


Does the planet Uranus have land on it?

No, there is no land on Uranus. It surface is solid because it's made out of gas:hydrogen, helium, and methane


Has Uranus got land?

Uranus hasn't got land, it is a gas planet. Which means you will simply fall into the core of the planet. If you tried to land on the planet.


Are there rocks on Uranus?

i think there isn't because of Uranus' atmosphere but scientists believe that deep in Uranus' atmosphere there is land


Does Uranus have potential for life?

No, Uranus is a gas giant. But we are a carbon-based life-form that relies on water and land. Uranus is not actually land, so nothing is able for something to walk on.

What would it be like if a spacecraft landed on Uranus?

An ordinary spaceship will not land. It will be tossed about by the winds and gravity will destroy the craft.


Can space probes land on Uranus?

Not actually. Uranus is a gas planet, covered by a very dense atmosphere. The depths of it have a very high pressure and temperature. A probe would more likely float within the upper atmosphere.No, you can not land on Uranus. Uranus is made of gas, but has particles of rock in it.No, Uranus is a gas planet. the only solid part of it is the core. To even get to that you would need to design a ship that can withstand extreme pressure and intense winds.It might be possible that a specially designed ship could 'land' on Uranus. Uranus is sometimes called a gas giant, but it is so cold that it is more like a big slush ball or snowball.
