While telescopes and the Voyager 2 flyby gave us glimpses of its atmosphere and unusual tilt, many questions remain ...

But thanks to this new research, we now know a little more about this icy giant. According to the research, which assessed Hubble images take between 2002 and 2022, the main components of Uranus ...

Uranus's atmosphere is mostly hydrogen and helium, with a small amount of methane and traces of water and ammonia. The methane gives Uranus its cyan color by absorbing the red wavelengths of sunlight.

Wind tunnels show what a probe descending into the atmosphere of an ice giant may have to contend with. What would it be like to fall through the clouds of our solar system's ice giants, Uranus or ...

Known as the Uranus Orbiter and Probe, the mission will most likely involve a cone-shaped probe that will dive down into Uranus’s atmosphere, coupled with a kind of satellite that will get ...

Planet Uranus, explained. From a sideways spin to an aromatic atmosphere, the seventh planet from the sun harbors many scientific curiosities.

Uranus’s atmospheric loss is driven by its strange magnetic field, the axis of which points at an angle compared to the axis on which the planet spins.

Uranus’s aurora directly connects to the planet’s magnetic field and atmosphere, so studying it can help astronomers make predictions about the atmospheres and magnetic fields and their ...

Researchers armed with the Hubble Space Telescope have revealed that some of Uranus' largest moons have one side brighter than the other — but not the side they were expecting.

Wind tunnels show what a probe descending into the atmosphere of Uranus or Neptune would probably need to contend with. Such a probe is a high-priority mission for both NASA and ESA.
