1 Uranus Jordyne Davis, Sabina Gomes, TJ Mercaldo, Micheal Mazi
2 Mythology of Uranus ~ Ouranos was the greek god of the sky (father sky) ~ He was son and husband of Gaia,Mother Earth ~ Gaia and Ouranos were the parents of the first generation titans and most of the other Greek gods
3 The Start of it All In 1718 William Herschel named the planet Georgium Sidus in honor of King George lll. In 1850 the common name Uranus was proposed by a german astronomer Johann Elert Bode.
4 All About the Numbers ~uranus is billion km from the sun ~ It is the seventh planet from the sun but the third largest planet in the solar system ~ 51,118 km across in diameter, which is about 4 times bigger than earth
5 Satellites Voyager 2 space flew by Uranus in january 24, The voyager 2 has been the only satellite to go to Uranus since 1986.
6 io7udhf 4 Major Moons of Uranus
7 UMBRIEL ~Umbriel was discovered on 24 October 1851 by English astronomer William Lassell.Umbriel is the darkest of Uranus' largest moons. ~It reflects only 16 percent of the light that strikes its surface ~take about 4.12 days to orbit around Uranus. ~Umbriel is named for a malevolent spirit in English poet Alexander Pope's 18th century poem "Rape of the Lock."
8 MIRANDA ~Discovered in telescopic photos of the Uranian system by Gerard P. Kuiper on 16 February miranda is only one seventh the size of the earth's moon. ~It s giant fault canyons are as much as 12 times as deep as the Grand Canyon. ~ Was named for the daughter of Prospero in William Shakespeare's play, "The Tempest."
9 TITANIA ~discovered on 11 January 1787 by British astronomer William Herschel, titaina is the largest moon in the solar system of uranus. ~Titania is a grey color which is the typical color of most of Uranus moons. ~it has a system of fault valley with some reaching 1000 miles long. ~Titania is named for the queen of the fairies in William Shakespeare's 16th century play "A Midsummer Night's Dream."
10 ARIEL Ariel was discovered 24 October 1851 by William Lassell, one of 19th century England's Grand Amateur astronomers. With the lack of craters, Ariel appears to be one of Uranus youngest moons. Out of all Uranus five major moons Ariel is the Brightest. When you observe Aerial between yourself and the sun, it appears substantially brighter. This moon was named Ariel by Sir John Herschel (son of Uranus discoverer Sir William Herschel) at the request of the moon's discoverer, William Lassell.
11 Uranus days and years compared to earth Uranus days are shorter than days on earth. Days on earth are 24 hours A day on uranus is only hours A year on uranus is 84 earth years
12 The Surface of uranus is made out of The atmosphere is made out of 83% hydrogen, 15% helium, and 2% methane Layers of uranus atmosphere, liquid hydrogen, molten core
13 Travel Time! The distance between Earth and Uranus is 2,870,658,180 km. So when you board the BACKOFTHEBACH it will take about 1 year and half to get there. You get to have all the holidays in space. Imagine having Christmas among the stars.
14 The Sun effects Uranus by. Temperature of Uranus is -357,because of the distance from the sun. Highly advise you to bring your most fluffiest coat. Be sure to go within the 42 years of sunlight, cause you don't want to go during the 42 years of darkness. It s atmosphere lights up when particles from the solar wind enter the atmosphere and interact with gases like nitrogen and carbon dioxide. We call it the sideways planet, because the north and south poles perpendicular to the sun and the east and west poles are parallel to the sun.
15 Somethings you might want to know. Appears blue through a telescope, in result of methane in the atmosphere absorbing of red light. Don t be shook when your suddenly goes up in uranus, because it has a higher gravitional pull than Earth. It s the third largest planet in our solar system, four times larger than Earth. Became the first planet to be seen through the telescope.
16 Uranus. Is often referred to as rolling around the sun on it s side. Is tipped over on it s side with a axail tilt of 98 degrees. Was discovered by William Herschel on March 13, 1781 Makes one trip around the sun every 84 years.
