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.

The planet Uranus, photographed by NASA’s Voyager 2 spacecraft in 1986. The planet and its moons are expected to be the target of NASA’s next major mission to the outer solar system. When NASA’s ...

For sure, it was a far-reaching recommendation: The planet Uranus and its moons should be NASA's highest-priority new flagship mission for startup in the decade 2023-2032. The proposed mission, known ...

Scientists have found that Uranus is emitting its own internal heat — even more than it receives from sunlight — and this discovery contradicts observations of the distant gas giant made by NASA's ...

The chance of liquid oceans hiding beneath the surface of moons orbiting Uranus has enticed NASA to begin planning a new mission that will send a spacecraft to the ice giant. The mission is still in ...

AUSTIN (KXAN) — The ongoing search for oceans in our solar system is taking us to Uranus. A new computer model, designed by researchers at the University of Texas, could help a future NASA mission ...

Uranus wasn't ready for its closeup 38 years ago. I speak of the 7th planet from the Sun, and third largest in our solar system, which received a flyby — 50,000 miles above the planet — from the ...

Scientists have uncovered a long-sought secret hidden deep within Uranus: the icy giant is still radiating internal heat. Contrary to what was believed for decades, Uranus is not merely reflecting ...
