Answer:

The planet is made of ice, gases and liquid metal. Its atmosphere contains hydrogen (1H), helium (2He) and methane. The temperature on Uranus is −197 °C (−322.6 °F; 76.1 K) near the top of its atmosphere, but its small solid core (about 55% the mass of Earth) is probably about 4,730 °C (8,540 °F; 5,000 K).

The planet is tilted on its axis so much that it is sideways.[1] It has five big moons, many small ones, and a small system of 13 planetary rings.

The distance between Uranus and the Sun is about 2.8 billion km. Uranus completes its orbit around the Sun in 84 earth years. It completes a spin around itself in 17 hours and 14 minutes. This means there are about 43,000 Uranian days in one Uranian year.

Uranus was discovered in 1781.[] This planet can be seen with the naked eye under perfect conditions. John Flamsteed saw it decades earlier but mistook it for a star (34 Tauri).

Uranus is named after the Greek god Uranus, who was a god of sky.

Uranus has 27 known moons. They are named for characters from the works of Shakespeare and Alexander Pope.[] The five biggest moons are Miranda, Ariel, Umbriel, Titania and Oberon. Many moons have yet to be discovered.

Uranus is covered in blue clouds. The top clouds, made of methane, are difficult to see.[] Lower clouds are thought to be frozen water. There are also violent storms. Wind speeds can reach 250 metres per second (900 km/h; 560 mph). Scientists are studying the clouds to try to understand the storms on the planet.[

1986, NASA's Voyager 2 visited Uranus. This is the only space probe that tried to investigate the planet from a short distanc

Answer:-

  • Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun.
  • It has the third-largest planetary radius and fourth-largest planetary mass in the Solar System.
  • The interior of Uranus is mainly composed of ices and rock. Like the other giant planets, Uranus has a ring system, a magnetosphere, and numerous moons.
  • Uranus is made of water, methane, and ammonia fluids above a small rocky center.
  • Its atmosphere is made of hydrogen and helium like Jupiter and Saturn, but it also has methane. The methane makes Uranus blue.

i hope it helps you.
