Uranium – the seventh and coldest planet existing in the Solar system. Though it is closer to the Sun, than, for example, the Neptune. On the planet the eternal cold as Uranium, receiving heat from the Sun, does not allocate it really reigns. And that is not all the interesting facts about Uranium.
The interesting facts about the planet Uranium
- Uranium – the planet giant in which there is a massive kernel. But unlike other planets, the kernel of Uranium managed to stiffen. What caused such process, up to the end it is not known. Now on its surface constant temperature about-224 degrees Celsius remains.
- Not everyone knows that Uranium rotates kind of lying on one side on axis inclination degree in relation to the Sun.
- One more surprising fact about this cold planet is that day makes 17 hours here. But because of feature of rotation and an inclination towards one pole, summer on the planet Uranium lasts 42 years. As soon as the planet turns away from the Sun, the next 42 years on it darkness reigns.
- On density degree among planets of the Solar system Uranium ranks second.
- Uranium is shrouded in rings. Though it is considered that the most effective rings in space belong to Saturn. Just Uranium rings more darkly and already. Astronomers managed to calculate that rings of Uranium have not enough years. Perhaps, they were formed later, than the planet.
- The atmosphere of Uranium is rather monotonous – the planet represents continuous blue (even blue) a sphere, without space clouds, without formation of storm as, for example, on Jupiter. But the infrared method of researches allows to see around the planet of a cloud. However, some of them can exist only several hours.
- One more interesting fact - on Uranium blows wind of improbable force, reaching, to terrestrial measures, up to 250 km/h. Around Uranium satellites rotate. For example, astronomers counted 27 moon which accompany the giant.
- So amazing planet – Uranium – was found relatively recently. Many of planets were known to people since antiquity. And here Uranium was discovered with the advent of strong telescopes.
