The data collected will help researchers understand how Uranus' atmosphere functions and how it has evolved over the past 30 ...

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

Hubble Space Telescope data show that the time taken for the planet to revolve around its axis is almost half a minute longer ...

Uranus Findings Can Aid the Study of Exoplanets Now more than 30 years into its mission, the Hubble Space Telescope has ...

The Hubble Telescope has revealed that a day on Uranus is longer than previously believed, potentially impacting our understanding of celestial rotation rates.

you can still use radar to track the surface as it turns. Even with Jupiter, which is engulfed in a vast atmosphere, there are giant storms that can act as markers. Uranus is another matter entirely.

On Uranus, a day just lasts far longer. More precise rotational time observations of the gas giant should enable scientists ...

Aurora lights on Uranus helped NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope measure the planet’s interior rotation rate, changing what astronomers know about how long a day is on the cold and windy world.

Planets' temperatures are largely influenced by their structural characteristics and proximity to the Sun, however, Venus notably presents a unique case.

Uranus just got a little more time on its hands ... for calculating coordinates on the enigmatic world and mapping its surface. Scientists may need to rethink some of those maps, a new study ...
