Webb maps Uranus’s upper atmosphere, revealing cooling temperatures, shifting auroras, and the effects of its tilted magnetic field.

The telescope observed the ice giant for a full rotation, revealing how temperature and charged particles vary with altitude.

Uranus does not behave like an ordinary planet. Its magnetic field tilts by nearly 60 degrees and sits off-center, so the charged particles that spark auroras do not gather in neat rings.

The results offer a new window into how ice‑giants distribute energy in their upper layers. The post Scientists take new approach toward Uranus appeared first on Talker.

A research team has successfully created the first-ever three-dimensional map of Uranus’s upper atmosphere.

A flyby of Uranus in 1986 is where we gathered much of our knowledge about the distant ice giant, but new research has found that this may not have been a standard representation of the planet's ...
