Uranus is now on the spotlight. Puns aside, the James Webb’s latest images turn a sideways, sleepy-looking world into a busy ...

Uranus, the seventh planet from the Sun, is an enigmatic world that has perplexed astronomers with its extreme axial tilt of ...

In proximity to this small core, Uranus reaches temperatures of up to 9,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Despite being larger in diameter than Neptune, Uranus is smaller in mass.

Could the world’s most sophisticated space telescope still be lacking moons in our solar system? The James Webb Space ...

Uranus is way beyond freezing, with an estimated upper atmosphere temperature of -357 degrees Fahrenheit. Researchers think the collision created a thin, insulating layer of debris close to the ...

You see, Uranus is so sad and so very lonely; despite being discovered in 1781, it hasn’t had a visitor since 1986, when Voyager 2 performed humanity’s one and only flyby of the planet.

Venus will have a magnitude of -4.0, bright enough to be seen with the naked eye, according to In the Sky, while Uranus will have a magnitude of 5.8, meaning it will be best viewed with binoculars ...

It was amazing." This composite image shows heat from the rings of Uranus for the first time, enabling scientists to determine their temperature: a frigid 77 Kelvin (-320 Fahrenheit).

Voyager 2 hinted at a cyclone at Uranus’ south pole. Now Earth-based observations give the first direct evidence of a storm at the ice giant’s north pole.

Because the temperature at which water ice forms is low, the impact debris from Uranus and its icy impactor would have mostly vapourised during the collision.

In new images of the rings around Uranus (the seventh planet from the sun has 13 known rings), researchers have been able to decipher not only the temperature, but also the bits that create the rings.

Two telescopes have measured the faint heat from the main, or epsilon ring, of Uranus, enabling astronomers for the first time to determine its temperature: a cool 77 Kelvin. Earlier images of the ...
