Can you spot Uranus in this photo? You may be surprised to learn... it is possible to see it with the naked eye — no telescopes or binoculars required.

There is a lot of methane gas in the atmosphere around Uranus.

Nope, my Uranus is hiding out. It would not be a surprise to view. It may be gross though.

Do a search on Uranus.

Sometimes when I’m bored I either look at nunchuck fails on YouTube or I type in Uranus on the search bar at the Freeper homepage...
For some odd reason it’s always good for a chuckle dot-dot-dot
