Most of humanity’s knowledge about Uranus came from a 1986 Voyager 2 flyby on “a particularly windy day.” A new study says ...
When NASA's Voyager 2 flew by Uranus in 1986, it captured grainy photographs of large ice-covered moons. Now nearly 40 years ...
Imagine a spacecraft dancing with distant moons, detecting tiny wobbles that could reveal vast hidden oceans beneath thick ...
Researchers at the University of Texas have developed a computer model that can detect liquid water on the moons of Uranus by ...
Uranus is much further away from the Sun than Earth is, almost 3 billion km, while Earth is only about 228 million km from ...
A planetary scientist proposes that the interiors of Uranus and Neptune are layered, with deep oceans of water above ...
Now, a new study published Nov. 11 in Nature Astronomy has revisited the Voyager 2 data and discovered that Uranus was ...
Scientists are reconsidering old information about Uranus. NPR's Scott Simon explains the problem with photos taken of the ...
A fascinating new study has shed light on the mysterious interiors of Uranus and Neptune, two of the least explored planets ...
The ongoing search for oceans in our solar system is taking us to Uranus. A new computer model, designed by researchers at ...
If Uranus's moons are found to have interior oceans, that could mean there are vast numbers of potentially life-harboring worlds throughout the galaxy, said UTIG planetary scientist Doug Hemingway ...
A new computer model can be used to detect and measure interior oceans on the ice covered moons of Uranus. The model works by analyzing orbital wobbles that would be visible from a passing spacecraft.
