Planet Uranus

One day on Uranus is equivalent to about 17.24 Earth hours. Uranus rotates on its axis at a different speed compared to Earth, leading to longer days on that planet.

As planets, Neptune and Uranus are not considered siblings. However, in a mythological context, both planets are named after Roman gods, who were indeed brothers. Neptune is the Roman god of the sea, while Uranus is the Roman god of the sky.

Yes, Uranus is the closest planet to Neptune.

The discoverer of Uranus is William Herschell which named Uranus Georgium Sidius in honor of his king King George III then a German astronomer named it Uranus.

Yes it does sound like William Hershey

NO I AM NOT A NERD CUZ I WROTE THIS IT WAS A QUESTION FOR MY SCIENCE PROJECT

HAHAHAHAH

YOUR WELCOME I'LL BE HAPPY IF YOU SEND MONEY TO MY HOUSE HERE'S MY ADRESS ********************************************** ************* *********************** there ya go ( DO NOT send money )

Uranus is a gas giant with a predominantly hydrogen and helium atmosphere. It has a bluish color due to methane in its atmosphere absorbing red light. Uranus rotates on its side, giving it unique seasons and a magnetic field that is tilted at an angle.

The only thing that Uranus and Earth likely have in common is that they orbit the barycenter of the Solar System in roughly-circular elliptical paths. In other respects, they could hardly be more different. Earth has a metallic core, a molten rock mantle, a thin solid crust largely covered with a thin layer of liquid water (frozen at the poles), and a 100-mile-deep atmosphere of mainly nitrogen and oxygen. It is located in a warm region relatively close to the Sun. Uranus has a molten rocky core smaller than the Earth and similar to the Earth's mantle; overlaid by a 12000-mile-deep ice mantle of hot dense ammonia, water, methane and sulfur compounds; and a 3000-mile-deep frigid atmosphere of mainly hydrogen and helium. At no point is there a solid surface. It receives very little solar energy. In case you are thinking that "ice" and "hot" in the same sentence might be a typo, be aware that the hot ammonia/water mantle at a temperature of several thousand degrees is indeed a slushy ice due to the tremendous pressure and density created by the 12-thousand mile depth of the ice mantle.

In Roman mythology, Uranus was known as Caelus. He was the personification of the sky, and was considered a primordial deity. Uranus was believed to be the husband and progenitor of Gaia, the Earth goddess, and together they were the parents of the Titans.

It has no scientific name. It was named Pluto and that was that.

Uranus possibly got turned on its side by two collisions from the kuiper belt being flung towards the sun. Of course no one knows exactly what happened, but whatever did happen was when the solar system was still forming, because it now has many moons possibly from the collision

Uranus orbits the Sun in an almost perfect circle, although it is slightly elliptical. Its orbit is tilted at an angle of about 98 degrees compared to the plane of the Solar System, making it unique among the planets.

The moon Miranda is the 5th-largest moon of the planet Uranus. It is about 470 km in diameter.

Its volume is about 54 million cubic kilometers (1/400th of Earth's Moon), and its mass is about 6.6 x 10^19 kg (1/1000 of Earth's Moon).

It would be about 84.32 years of comparison. So that would mean 16.2 of the days will be 36 months.

The Uranus moon with V-shaped grooves covering over one third of its surface is Miranda. These grooves are believed to be caused by tectonic processes on the moon's surface.

Yes, Uranus has water in the form of icy compounds in its atmosphere and possibly in its interior. These compounds consist of water, ammonia, and methane. However, it is not in liquid form like water on Earth due to the extreme cold temperatures on Uranus.

Estimates of gravity on Uranus range from 86% to 91% of Earth's gravity. Therefore, using 89%, if you weighed 90 lbs on Earth, you would weigh about 80 lbs on Uranus.

Delphinus is one of the 48 constellations listed by the Greek astronomer Ptolemy in the 2nd century. It has been recognized since ancient times and is known as a small constellation in the northern sky. Its name means "dolphin" in Latin.

Uranus' most famous moon is likely Titania, which is the largest and second most massive moon of the planet. It was discovered in 1787 by William Herschel and is known for its icy surface and unique geological features.

The planet Uranus has faint rings, and the planet is tilted so the axis is nearly parallel to its orbit. The planet is a gas giant, which means that the planet is made of gases. And finally, the atmosphere is made up of hydrogen and helium.

Voyager 2 closest approach to Uranus occurred on January 24, 1986, where it came within 81,500 kilometers (50,600 miles) of the planet's cloud tops.

Types if Ice. Uranus and Neptune are ice giant worlds.

Most people know that volcanoes are dangerous, and it's true. But why do people still live near volcanoes? Some people live near volcanoes because of the ash it produces. Ash is good fertilizer for the soil and crops. Also volcanoes can create new land.

The same way the rest of the bodies in our solar system were: by the accretion (clumping together) of larger and larger particles until it was the biggest object in its part of the solar system.

The trigger event is believed to be the death throes of a passing star, whose gravity waves and radiation pressure sufficiently disturbed the initial gas cloud from which our solar system formed: the central part collapsed, spun up, and began to shine on its own due to the process of nuclear fusion (our sun) while the rest of the cloud either got dragged around it, or was eventually blown away by the pressure of the solar wind.

Because Uranus's internal heat is lower than Neptune's -- possibly because it doesn't have a moon as large as Triton providing friction from gravitational drag -- Uranus is actually colder than Neptune, despite being almost a billion miles closer to the sun.

Uranus is tilted on its side, not upside down. This unique tilt is believed to be the result of a powerful impact early in its formation process. This tilt gives Uranus its distinct characteristic of appearing to roll along its orbit as it orbits the sun.
