GRAHA - URANUS

Uranus lies nearly 2 billion miles (3.2 billion

kilometers) from the Sun and is the seventh

planet out (only Neptune and Pluto are farther).

It has a diameter of about 32,000 miles (51,500
kilometers) and, according to flyby magnetic
data from Voyager 2 in 1986, has a rotation
period of 17.4 hours.

At last count, the planet has more than 20
moons.

Along the plane of the planets equator is also a
complex of nine narrow, nearly opaque rings,
which were discovered in 1978.

Uranus likely has a rocky core, surrounded by a

liquid mantle of water, methane, and ammonia,

all encased in an atmosphere of hydrogen and
helium.

A bizarre feature is how far over Uranus is
tipped.

Its north pole representing the planets axis of
rotation lies 98 degrees from being directly up
and down to its orbit plane, which means the
planet is essentially on its side in relation to the
Sun.

Thus, its seasons are extreme: when the Sun

rises at its north pole, it stays up for 42 Earth

years; then it sets and the north pole is in
darkness for 42 Earth years.

Sir William Herschel discovered Uranus on
March 13, 1781, noting that it was moving
slowly through the constellation Gemini.

Initially, however, Herschel thought he had
discovered a new comet.
