Uranus was really dim and it had a slow orbit that is why it took so long.
By calculating the gravitational tug necessary to pull Uranus in its orbit, they were able to tell astronomers where to point their telescopes to discover Neptune.
It takes Uranus approximately 84 Earth years to orbit the sun once.
It would take about 9 years for a spacecraft to reach Uranus using current technology, such as the Voyager or New Horizons spacecraft. However, there are no current plans for a mission to Uranus, so it may be longer before another spacecraft is sent to explore the planet.
Travel time to Uranus varies depending on the spacecraft and trajectory used. The fastest trip so far by Voyager 2 took about 9 years. A spacecraft using gravity assists from other planets could potentially reach Uranus in about 6-7 years. Future technologies may reduce this time.
Since Uranus has a 92% tilt on its axis, the sun sets every 42 years. One side of Uranus faces the sun for 42 years while the other side faces darkness at the same time. Then when 42 years go by, this reverses.

Winter on Uranus is so long because it is parallel to the winter solstice.
because franicum is soooo reactive
The rotational period of Uranus is a little over 17 hours, so the answer to your question is "about three-quarters of one".

yes there is but they are faint so u cant really discribe them

Very cold, slowly alternating with extremely cold. (Uranus "lies" on its side ... so a "day" would be a "year" long.)
Overall, Uranus rotates once every 17 hours and 14 minutes, but some of it's upper cloud levels rotate faster - once every 14 hours or so.

Uranus distance from the Sun is 2.88 billion km. that's 2,876,679,082 km. Want that number in miles? Uranus distance from the Sun is 1.79 billion miles. This number is just an average, though. Uranus follows an elliptical orbit around the Sun. At its closest point, called perihelion so its about 2.49 hours going speed of light assuming warp 1 does that speed it would take a ship 2.49 hours from sun to uranus warp 2 you would divide by 2 Explanation: Light takes about 2.49 hours to travel from the Sun to Uranus when Uranus is closest to the Sun.
