  3. Is There Life We know that there are no other life sustaining planets in our solar system other than our own, Earth. Uranus, being in our solar system, cannot sustain life. It cannot sustain life because of it’s frigid temperatures, gaseous surface, and it’s incredibly thick atmosphere.

  4. Probes Only one probe has ever been sent to Uranus, Voyager II. Voyager II was sent to Uranus in 1972, by the NASA space program. While there Voyager II discovered 10 new moons for Uranus, took photos, and samples of the rings.

  5. What Is It Like Uranus is a semi-large planet, in comparison to Neptune their sizes are very alike. Uranus is also different from all the other planets in our solar system, it rotates on it’s axis horizontally. (Instead of left to right it goes from top to bottom.) In addition to the size similarity it also has a similar composition, hydrogen, helium, and methane for the atmosphere, which explains the bluish tinge. And a solid core surrounded by water and ice.

  6. Who Discovered It The English astronomer Sir William Herschel discovered the planet, in the year 1781.When discovered there was a controversy over the name after much deciding they settled on Uranus, the Greek god of the heavens.

  7. Where Is It Uranus is the seventh planet in our solar system, it is about 3 billion miles from the sun (3,000,000,000). With this distance from the sun the temperatures are much lower, in fact they usually are in the negative 800’s. That’s very cold!

  8. What Would It Be Like Trying To Live There It would be extremely difficult, with the atmosphere, the terrain, and the temperatures, life will always be unsustainable on Uranus. Or it least I think it will be. Also, Uranus is so far away from the Earth it would take years to get there and it probably wouldn’t even be worth it.

  9. Concluding Statements Now that you know what the planet Uranus is like be sure to enjoy your new knowledge. Thank you.

  10. Dedications Thank you Mrs. Zimmerman for helping me find something to do with my arm being the way it is, also thank you to my science teacher Mrs. Rieche.
