These exploration vehicles all have mico-agressing names from European languages.

The next probe to penetrate the mysteries of gas giant Uranus should have a diverse name. Barack 1 would be suitable.

85% hydrogen? No Smoking anywhere near it! If that thing caught fire it would make the Hindenberg look like a wienie roast. Is there enough oxygen to support combustion?

Has uranus been known to “cut the cheese”...so to speak?

Another cool thing in the Uranian system is the moon Miranda.

Yep! A question one would hear in the WH, especially when Reggie’s visiting.

I once asked my astronomy teacher back in the 80s the question, "does uranus emit gas"? He was the only one in the class who seemed to get it.

You can see in that image that Uranus has a giant vortex like the “great red spot” of Jupiter, but because there is so little contrast in the atmosphere, it just doesn’t stand out very much.
