But how did Uranus end up this way? In this video, we explore the scientific theories that explain its bizarre axial tilt. Voting ends in Greenland election dominated by Trump's control pledge ...

An analysis of two decades of data from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has provided fresh insights into the complex atmospheric changes on Uranus that are largely driven by the effects of the sun's ...

Astronomers have just revealed that a day on Uranus is longer than was previously thought, at 17 hours, 14 minutes and 52 ...

The reason this worked so well is thanks to Hubble’s consistent, long-term observations. Over more than a decade, the space ...

The team used more than a decade’s worth of observations of Uranus’ unique aurorae taken with Hubble and refined the planet’s rotation period. This technique revealed that it completes a rotation 28 ...

This makes calculating the length of a Uranian day hard enough, but it's further complicated by Uranus being tilted at 98 degrees on its axis, so it's essentially rolling on its side, with the ...

Uranus seemed like a fairly calm, blue-green planet. But new findings from Hubble paint a different picture of Uranus.

Uranus' magnetic field acts in a very different way from other planets. Understanding its nature could be key to finding alien life in the future. You can read more about the scientists' findings ...

This is due to the planet's highly tilted magnetic field, which is significantly offset from its rotational axis. The findings not only help astronomers understand Uranus' magnetosphere but also ...

An international team of astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has made new measurements of Uranus’ interior rotation rate with a novel technique, achieving a level of accuracy 1 000 ...
