Was our only close-up of Uranus a cosmic misunderstanding? For decades, our knowledge of the ice giant came from Voyager 2's 1986 flyby. Now, scientists believe the spacecraft arrived during a powerful solar storm that hid the planet's true nature.This changes everything we thought we knew, suggesting Uranus's moons might not be geologically dead after all.👽 A New Frontier for Life?The skewed data means four of Uranus's largest moons—Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon—are now prime candidates for hosting subsurface liquid water oceans, making them high-priority targets in the search for extraterrestrial life.🔭 Uranus Quick Facts:- The Tilted Planet: Rotates on its side with an extreme 98-degree tilt.- Ice Giant: Composed of water, methane, and ammonia ices.- Coldest World: Holds the record for the coldest atmosphere in the solar system (-224°C / -371°F).🚀 The Next Mission:Learn about the Uranus Orbiter and Probe (UOP), NASA's top-priority flagship mission to finally unlock the secrets of this distant world and its potentially life-bearing moons.#Uranus #NASA #SpaceExploration #Astrobiology #Voyager2 #IceGiants #MoonsOfUranus #AlienLife #ScienceNews #PlanetaryScience #UOP
