Uranus – first spotted by Sir William Herschel from Bath, England, in 1781 – also has the most powerful wind observed in the solar system, blowing at more than 500mph

if they probe any deeper into Uranus it might make things uncomfortable.

There is a lot more water in their atmospheres, a lot more methane.

Uranus has methane? You don't say.

One of the big mysteries about Uranus is that it doesn’t emit much heat at all.
This is especially true about my wife. Her ass is like a block of ice.

We’ve only really scratched the surface of Uranus. It is very difficult to observe from Earth because any detail is smeared out.
