Uranus is the ancient greek of the hehavens, the earliest supreme God. Uranus was the son and mate of gaia, the father of Cronus (saturn), and the cyclopes and the titans ( predecessors of the olympian Gods).

Uranus was the first planet that was discovered in modern times, was discovered by willian herschel while systematically was searching around the sky with his telescope on the 13th of march in the year of 1781. Really, the planet uranus had been seen heaps of times but it had just been ignored as simply another type of star. and tha first time it was spotted but ignored was written at around the 1960's. =__Uranus Rings__=

Uranus has only been visited by one space craft, the voyager 2 on janurary the 24th 1986. As most of the planets spin on an axis nearly perpendicular to the plan of the ecliptic, but uranus's axis is almost parrallel to the ecliptic. Uranus is primarily composed of rock and various ices, with only about 15% of hydrogen, and a little bit of helium. Uranus and neptune are in heaps of ways as simliar to eachother by the cores of jupiter and saturn minus the massive liquid metallic hydrogen envelope, it seems that uranus does not have a rocky core like jupiter and saturn but rather its material is more or less uniformly distributed.
