New analysis of Voyager 2 observations shows that the craft arrived amid gusty solar wind, muddying our ideas about the giant ...
Do the moons of Uranus have interior liquid oceans like the moons of Jupiter and Saturn? This is what a recent study ...
Nearly 40 years after Voyager 2's journey, NASA plans to revisit Uranus to explore its moons for hidden liquid water oceans, ...
Most of humanity’s knowledge about Uranus came from a 1986 Voyager 2 flyby on “a particularly windy day.” A new study says ...
A pale blue-green enigma, the planet Uranus has long fascinated astronomers ... Dakota astronomer Caleb Strong explained that their research revealed Miranda likely has a subsurface ocean, which ...
What lies beneath the thick, bluish atmospheres of Uranus and Neptune? For decades, scientists have speculated about the ...

Researchers at the University of Texas have developed a computer model that can detect liquid water on the moons of Uranus by ...
A new computer model can be used to detect and measure interior oceans on the ice covered moons of Uranus. The model works by analyzing orbital wobbles that would be visible from a passing spacecraft.
A new paper, published in Geophysical Research Letters, revealed how the model could use Uranus’ moons wobble to detect the oceans. Small wobbles of the world’s moons occur as they orbit the ...
