Uranus is leaking gas

BGR ^ | 06/26/2020

[Zuriel]

**“The data revealed a helical bundle of magnetic flux containing planetary plasma, known as a ‘plasmoid,’ in the tail of the magnetosphere,”**

Can the plasmoid be removed from the tail of the magnetosphere? Would that help?

I am a 24/7 cropduster of some renown, TYVM. Ask my wife and my sister.

[gogeo]

That was a shart.

I’ve begun to think there’s *no way* to write a headline for this planet that isn’t funny.

Probably dines at Taco Bell....

[Old Yeller]

Uranus vents gas so you don’t blow up.

[Magnum44]

This thread stinks.

[Maris Crane]

That was a stand out show!

I am ecstatic to read something that is not about that “V” thing.

This was a nice break and this article is funny. I hope it is meant to be.

And, in my mind, that series was the best comedy show ever written and produced and directed. I am biased however.

You need to be here.

[FLT-bird]

Well hell, I could’ve told you that.

“it’s thought that Uranus has leaked far more of its gas than the rest.

There. Somebody finally said it.

“It’s believed that a massive object slammed into Uranus a long time ago”

Now we’re putting it all out there...
