Uranus…
Seventh planet in the solar system in order of distance from the Sun, third in diameter, and fourth in mass.
Average distance from the Sun: 2.871 billion kilometers…
Orbital period: 84 years… How long would it take to go to Uranus?
Equatorial diameter: 51,100 km, exactly 4 times that of Earth
Mass of 14.6 times that of Earth…
Rotational period: 17.25 hours…
Minimum temperature: -226°C
27 satellites detected so far…
A hostile world…
Already flown over by one of our probes many years ago
A world full of mysteries…

And we are about to return to it…

Above us, hidden in darkness, the blue giants Uranus and Neptune are claiming our attention.
Much larger than Earth, than Mars, than Venus — yet so distant as to be invisible to the naked eye.
We encountered them only once, when Voyager 2 flew over them in 1986 and 1989, then passed on until they were lost in interstellar space.

What If Uranus Collided With Earth?

What If Uranus Collided With Earth?



It’s been 30 days since Uranus first appeared in the sky. At first, it looked like our Moon had found itself a stellar partner. But then, we understood something much, much bigger was headed our way. What caused Uranus to become so unstable? How could this epic collision change the ice giant? And what’s with this horrific stink? Ugh.
