Uranus takes a pounding more frequently than thought

[Locutus]

Uranus isn't just gassy, it's also tilted completely sideways, such that instead of rotating like a spinning top, it rolls around the plane of the solar system more like a giant ball. Now astronomers think they know how this happened, and it means that Uranus has been pounded really, really hard not once, but twice.

Before I clicked on this thread, the title took a different meaning for me seeing as I just booked an appointment for a colonoscopy in the near future

If it wasn't for the fact Greece is short on cash, it might have gone to their space program....

I love astronomy; there is always something new and wonderful being discovered. BTW I prefer the original Greek origins for the name of the planet. Ouranos avoids the childish puns connected with the name.

I love Futurama. In one Episode, Fry makes a joke about Uranus, and Professor Farnsworth informs Fry that astronomers changed the name of Uranaus to avoid those silly puns. Fry asks what the new name is. Urectum :lol:

Can sometimes be remedied with a breather vent. We were getting "burps" of "rust" at work, and the breather pipe solved that problem!

I recommend additionally an HEPA filter for Walt though...just for biosecurity.
