The unique feature of the planet is that it is tipped on its side with relation to its orbital plane. Its poles lie nearly in the plane, alternately pointing toward the Sun as the planet orbits. At some points in its year (84 Earth years long), up to one half of the planet is in night for many months. If the planet were terrestrial, this would create a very unusual series of seasons. As with the half-year cycle that affects the Earth's poles, many areas on Uranus would have 42 Earth years of day or night.
Since the inclination is past 90° , it can be said that Uranus orbits clockwise, but its spin is still in the same direction as when it formed - only the tilt has changed.
The composition of Uranus' atmosphere is somewhat different from Neptune, making the planet larger and slightly less dense. So it is the third largest, but fourth most-massive solar planet.

Does thinking about Saturn Titan Uranus?
Yes, thinking about Saturn, Titan, and Uranus may involve considering their unique characteristics such as Saturn's rings, Titan's thick atmosphere, and Uranus' sideways rotation. Each planet offers interesting features that make them stand out in our solar system.
What planet has clouds of water methane and ammonia make up the outer part of this planet atmosphere?
The planet with clouds made of water, methane, and ammonia in its outer atmosphere is Uranus. These gases contribute to the unique blue-green hue of the planet and its distinct atmospheric composition compared to the other gas giants in our solar system.
What is the same between mars and uranus?

What surface composition of Uranus?
Uranus is similar in composition to Neptune, and both are of different chemical composition than 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 and Saturn's in its primary composition of hydrogen and helium, contains more "ices" such as water, ammonia and methane, along with traces of hydrocarbons. 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. In contrast the interior of Uranus is mainly composed of ices and rock

What are kinds of planets?
The question is not well-defined enough to answer. One common division is between "terrestrial" (rocky) planets and "jovian" (gas giant) planets. Some people make a distinction between "gas giants" (Jupiter and Neptune) and "ice giants" (Uranus and Neptune).
What 2 gases are the gas giants made up of?
Gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn are primarily made up of hydrogen and helium. These two gases are the most abundant elements in the universe and make up a large part of the composition of gas giants.
What four planets make up the outer planets?
There are four outer planets : Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. All are gaseous and more massive than the Earth. Pluto was once designated as a planet, but was reclassified as a "dwarf planet". The four "inner planets" are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars.
