Uranus
Appearance
Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun in the Solar System. It is an ice giant characterized by a large axial tilt, a methane-rich atmosphere, and a system of rings and moons.
Uranus is discussed in planetary science, atmospheric physics, and celestial mechanics.
Status
Uranus has been observed telescopically since the eighteenth century and studied through limited spacecraft observation. Models of its internal structure, atmospheric composition, and magnetic field continue to be developed.
