Uranus is tilted by about 98 degrees, so it spins on its side and has seasons that can last two decades. We explain what that tilt does to its rings, moons, and weather, why a giant impact early in the solar system is the leading explanation, and what Voyager 2's 1986 flyby revealed about this still little-visited ice giant.This episode includes AI-generated content.
The asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter is not the crowded rock field movies suggest. We explain what is actually in it, why its total mass is so small, how Ceres and Vesta fit the story, and why Jupiter's gravity likely kept those leftovers from becoming a planet. We also cover the Kirkwood gaps and what missions such as Dawn have shown.This episode includes AI-generated content.
Mars is called the Red Planet because iron oxide dust stains its surface, but the more surprising story is water. We explain why Mars looks red, what its thin carbon dioxide atmosphere is like today, and the evidence from orbiters and rovers that rivers and lakes once existed there — including Curiosity's ancient lake in Gale Crater and Perseverance's work at Jezero. We also cover polar and underground ice, why liquid water is unstable on the surface now, and why no life has been confirmed.This episode includes AI-generated content.
Jupiter's Great Red Spot is a storm bigger than Earth that astronomers have watched for well over a century. We explain what it is, how big it is, why it is red, how long it has lasted, why it has been shrinking, and what spacecraft like Juno have learned about how deep it goes.This episode includes AI-generated content.
Saturn's rings are one of the most stunning sights in the solar system, but where did they come from, and will they last? We look at what the rings are made of, how thin they are, how Galileo first saw them, what the Cassini mission revealed, the debate over whether the rings are young or ancient, and why every giant planet has rings but only Saturn's shine so brightly.This episode includes AI-generated content.
