À propos de cet audio
Dr. Hakeem Ali-Bocas Alexander unravels the peculiar characteristics of Uranus, from its extreme axial tilt to its mysterious atmosphere and why it remains one of the least understood planets in our cosmic neighborhood.
•Discover how Uranus's unprecedented 98-degree tilt creates the most extreme seasonal changes in our solar system, with each pole experiencing 42 years of continuous sunlight followed by 42 years of darkness.
•Explore the planet's pale blue-green appearance caused by methane in its atmosphere that absorbs red light and reflects blue-green wavelengths back into space.
•Understand how Voyager 2's brief 1986 flyby revealed surprising details about Uranus's faint ring system, magnetic field, and diverse collection of moons despite its limited observation window.
•Learn why Uranus remains one of the most compelling targets for future missions that could answer fundamental questions about ice giant formation and evolution throughout the universe.
