Uranus was quite boring when Voyager went by it. Because the planet is tilted almost 90 degrees something interesting happened. The pole pointed almost directly at the Sun! Half the planet in darkness for years and the other half lit up! This is a Hubble picture . Miranda was the most interesting thing about the fly by at the time. The theory was something big hit the moon busting it into pieces when then rejoined.
