the strange thing is that Uranus as the narrator himself said is the Latin version of Ouranos, which if you follow Latin pronunciation you get something like "oo-rah-noos" instead of all these silly english mispronunciations
You are the Mr. Rogers of our solar system. Low key and relaxed. Really informative and well done. Yours are very well done videos, that anyone can learn something new from. Thank you and Peace.
Sadly, the future of jokes about Uranus may be a long one considering the relatively gentle atmosphere makes it arguably the best candidate for atmospheric mining of Helium-3. Meaning, the "gas mines of Uranus" could someday be a real thing.
If you knew mine you would know it's already _a real thing_. If it were not, people wouldn't beg me to stop like the do. By the way I suspect it COULD be somehow arguably another (better?) candidate for Helium-3 too. Or at least for green methane energy source.

It's flippin incredible to me that literally every single planet in our solar system, the only solar system that contains life as we know it so far, is unique in their own way. I mean, if one contemplates the random nature of planetary formation, one might assume that the vast majority of planets should be fairly similar and "boring", bland dusty desolate rocks. But each and every single planet we have is utterly unique, even pluto and mercury with recent findings about their own oddities. That tied in with the fact that our Moon is the only moon in the solar system that is the exact right size and distance from its planet to cause a perfect solar eclipse that reveals the corona, a perfect solar eclipse which ONLY occurs in the solar system as seen from Earth (if you stand on mars, phobos wont produce such an eclipse, nor will any other moon seen from the surface of their parent planet). Contemplate that this perfect ratio ONLY occurs on the ONLY planet in the solar system with intelligent life on it. Also contemplate that during the earlier time of Earth, such as during the dinosaur ages, the moon was closer to Earth and as such would have blocked out the corona as well. This perfect ratio eclipse not only occurs around the ONLY planet with macroscopic life on it, it also ONLY occurs on this precise time when there are technologically advanced sentient beings here to witness it. I'm not saying it's by design, i'm merely saying, our solar system is absolutely astronomically impossibly unlikely in its perfection and layout at this precise time when we are here to observe it. If we evolved 200 million years later, the Moon wouldnt create a perfect eclipse anymore. Food for thought. Perhaps such celestial phenomena act as a catalyst, a spark, for creative self-awareness. If that were to be the case, one can only imagine the effect of a solar system embedded within a vast nebula as opposed to the dark skies of Sol.
I mean, you pulled one significant fact about the moon and it's eclipses. It doesn't mean it's significant in any sense just that it stands out to you as something not necessary for our observation of earths survival. I agree that it's interesting, and holds resonance with our sense of self but as far as the planets go, it actually doesn't ring true to me that each planet is perfectly distinct from one another most all have obscure molecules and lakes of methane, ethane, propane, nitrogen etc...and inhospitable terrain. I think there's something to be said about consciousness and it's discovery of itself on a habitable planet. That I agree with you, but I also argue that our brains are prone to fallacy constantly lol but the planets...I question any significance. I pretty much share your opinion though.
Perfectly reasonable hypothesis, that the eclipse phenomena could have been the catalyst for consciousness. Major events which happen with predictable frequency are things which life, even in it's simplest forms, tunes itself to out of necessity. The day/night cycle is the first and most basic, then after that the four seasons. Almost all life tunes itself to these in some way, so these cycles will be hard coded into almost every living being's DNA (and, with particularly advanced organisms like animals/birds who hibernate, migrate, and otherwise have advanced routines for adoption of varying behaviour patterns in accordance with those predictable cycles, that coding will also be advanced), so it would be absurd to suggest that major anomalies those cycles like perfectly aligned eclipses would not be picked up on. That could be interpreted by the evolving organism, as being symbolic. Symbolic of...something, but what exactly, it doesn't matter, just that first piece of cognitive attention being afforded to the idea that *anything* could be symbolic of *anything* which extends beyond the understanding which can be extrapolated through rational interpretation of the animal's surroundings and experiences. Natural phenomena like rains, floods, lightning and so forth are far too chaotic and unpredictable to be interpreted as being symbolic of anything to a pre-conscious animal mind, but the eclipses, being regular and predictable and linked directly to those systems on which all life depends and understands at the DNA level, could have been the first exception to that rule.
@@hemipemi I dont think hes saying eclipses were the reason for consciousness just that its intetesting that we exist to observe it lol. The universe is 13.7 billion light years across. That distance isn't even imaginable. Somewhere in this universe alone is a planet almost exactly like ours, undoubtedly with a moon and a sun providing light for potential organisms. We can't believe it because our brains are prone fallacy. 2000 years ago when humans were killing people because we thought they were witches we were observing eclipses. Further back, Mayans were sacrificing other humans, because they thought eclipses were punishment. I'm just saying. And technology has only made it worse. You didn't even include planet alignment. The fact of the matter is that humans look for meaning, and they find it, but I digress. Better to have loved than to have lost.
@@Abc-tx4zr "I dont think hes saying eclipses were the reason for consciousness just that its intetesting that we exist to observe it lol" I don't care much if that's what they were saying, but that's definitely what I'm saying. You're talking about the dawning of consciousness. Assuming you hold that to be an event which humans have experienced but no other animal has (a reasonable assumption), then it stands to reason that there was, at some stage in time, a trigger for that. Until that point you only have behaviour patterns. Behaviour patterns don't necessarily have any meaning to those who follow them, they're just learnt - monkey see monkey do. I believe that it also stands to reason that the trigger for the dawning of consciousness will have had to be something symbolic *and* predictable. Something which triggered a memory, a memory which could be communicated somehow and proven, perhaps similarly to the way elephants remember the location of, and return to burial grounds of their family elders. It's not inconceivable that a consciousness of these symbolic moon events developed in early human ancestors, who followed the cycles of the sun and the moon unconsciously in the way that many other animals do, especially if the patterns appeared to be growing gradually stronger across time, and appeared to be reaching a point of alignment, where the sun and moon appeared of equal size in the sky. It seems more likely to me that this - or at least that there could be a grain of truth to what I'm suggesting - a causation behind the correlation between the Sun and the Moon aligning in the sky (in size, as best observed during an eclipse but as can be noted on any normal day) would be the case, than for it to be a startling coincidence that they just happened to be aligned in such a way at the same time as conscious life developed on Earth - the latter seems to favour intelligent design/creationist logic.
If you were frozen and in a state that just froze you, you could unthaw once you got 6 mths away and then continue aging as you discover the planet then cyrogenical coma sleep til 6 mths away ftom earth, if it's still there!!!
shawna dee I wish freezing humans for deep space travel was possible. If we freeze ourselves, we will die. 80% of our body is water, and that water would freeze, and destroy our internal organs, or damage us internally.
This is one of the most informative videos I've watched about our solar system's 7th planet. Thank you very much for doing the research, editing, and sharing this video, Astrum! :)
The easiest and most logical solution would just be *pronouncing it correctly* ...but that already tells me that there is no solution in the first place. It wouldn't be half as sad if not more than half the top comments are lame jokes that you've already read/heard 50 times at least I guess it's your ancestors fault for mashing a few languages together without thinking of actual rules...most your vowels aren't even vowels per definition (they have multiple ways of pronouncing them(every vowel), often consist of more than one sound(A, I, O) and "U" is the worst since it even has a consonant in it's primary pronounciation). If your "U" had the [u] sound instead of [ju] (and no other possibilities) and your "a" the [a] instead of [ei] then the pronounciation would be either uniquely different or would be written "Yuranus" That's what written languages (or at least almost everyone except english) are supposed to be there for...to be able to write out what's spoken in a way so that someone else can read it and know how it's spoken from just reading it... Btw. that's also why you have such a hard time learning other languages and vice versa...for other languages you mostly just have to learn vocabularies after knowing the rules to master the language, with english you literally have to speak it for years to most likely never really master it since the "rules" don't involve the million special cases Just realize I may come across as salty or something...I'm not, I wasn't necessarily ranting but just pouring out my thoughts
I’m 29, the fact that throughout my entire life, the poles of Uranus have either been in complete darkness or complete light the entire time and still has a long time left, AMAZES me!
This whole trifle is non-existent outside of the English language, since the other languages don´t pronounce "U" as "you". So the phonetic of Ouranos is indeed closer to a rather universal pronounciation of a greek word. And for example in Czech language, the planet is called "Uran" (pronounced "Oo - Ran"), which kind of makes sense, because it is not necessary to keep the latin endings like "-us", since they often express adjectives and adverbs. We also don´t say "Mercurius" or "Saturnus". .
So what if somebody wants to say "anus?" Is that a really big problem? If somebody wants to laugh, let them laugh. I for one, am not taking laughter out of this world by any means.
Uranus often gets skipped over because of its bland colour and appearance compared to other planets but it has some really unique features. I also love the fact that it has a moon called "Margaret". Really, it should also have moons called names like "Pat", "Arthur" and "Jean" to fit in better.
“The first unique aspect of Uranus, is its name. “ There’s 2 agreed upon ways to pronounce it’s name in English but you will either have to say “URINEus” or “urANUS”. It’s an unfortunate lose lose situation for the name of such a beautiful planet! 😆
Well done. You have managed to teach more about Uranus than anything I have learned in elementary and junior high school which is long enough ago not to mention.
well perhaps thats because you are more receptive to learning about things in adulthood. So it wasnt that it was the fault of anyone that you didnt learn about science as a teenager, its just that your attention was focused on boobies, and not uranus.
unfortunately we don't have probes at Uranus and Neptune, nor are they planned, and no new designs for Pluto, Sedna etc are underway. I wish humanity would be more dedicated to astronomy. We could have telescopes built and science reached so much more.
+Galaxia true, but im sure soon some m-class mission would be deployed for these outer planets, once we are done exploring the inner planets. Coz its always in to out. Juno is now doing good, and soon we will reach out to these. But pluto has new horizons now.
There are no missions planned, which means even in the long run. How could you be sure if NASA isn't even sure. Jupiter is no outer solar system and New Horizons is past Pluto, I was saying no new and thus orbital mission for Pluto planned. In short you're confirming there are no missions in outer solar system. Please don't waste our energy with meaningless debates :p
The orbits of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto were first discovered using Bode's law. A simple geometric progression based on the mass of the sun. It has since been 'discredited' because modern astronomers failed to take into account the fact that other stars have different masses. They then used this to determine that Pluto wasn't a planet.
Forget diamonds. I'm a geologist, the pressure will be way to high for the diamond. There will be a liquid carbon layer with a rather high viscosity with an exocitic allotrope of carbon, possibly with metallic properties.
I would rather just skip the subject altogether and face the consequences like a boss. Then sue the people who gave this name to the planet. Because funny or not, URANUS JOKES ARE INEVITABLE.
Uranus is the only giant other than Jupiter to have an undisrupted satellite system. We really need to send an orbiter of the Galileo/Cassini type to study the Uranian system.
It was proposed but I believe Neptune was chosen. We need to get back out to the outer solar system and orbit the 3 outer planets. I also think we should take a peak at Sedna when it reaches Perihelion, it might be an inner oort cloud object
I know that Neptune's original satellite system was disrupted when Triton was captured and destroyed any other large round moons it may have had, but how is Saturn's system disrupted?
ok... I'm just gonna say it it upfront so you can get all the laughs out, but... Uranus is My Favorite. yeah... yeah... laugh it up! Anyway... after watching all these vids in your series (which are very well produced)... I changed my fav. I used to be a Mars or Saturn guy.... but Now Id have to admit that Uranus has left an impression on me. It seems a pretty mystifying planet and I like the enigma of it. Also... I am completely mezmerized by the pic of it @0:13 . I wish someone would explain exactly what this pic of Uranus is. Great videos.
It's a Hubble image of Uranus, I believe in the infrared. Check out more about it here: solarsystem.nasa.gov/galleries/hubble-tracks-clouds-and-moons-at-uranus#!
Isabella Lopez At this juncture, one might speculate as to the age bracket of one Isabella Lopez, respectively. As we do not have the time, nor resources in which to break down, define, and dissect the comedic forces at play, shall we then simply assume that the unconventional delivery of prepubescent Texan vernacular circa 1990 is unfamiliar to Ms. Lopez. Thus any further dispute of interplanetary gas giants and their accompanying satellites would be trivial..... in other words, " this shit went right over yer head"
White Dinosaur No, you seem to be just another curious person showing interest in space, I want to see more missions to Uranus and Neptune as well we don't know very much about either of those planets since voyager 2s fly by.
Such a bizarre and beautiful planet, with very interesting moons! You make such amazing videos! I have to search hard to find the good stuff! Your videos are top quality! I can't wait for more! Well done indeed! Thanks a lot!
Well this popped up in my recommendation because I posted something about Mass Effect Andromeda... I’m years late to the party and initial reaction is to expect Uranus jokes and it hasn’t failed me yet.
Dear Astrum, excellent videos dude. You might think I would be bored with another video on the planets because I remember when the Pioneer spacecraft were lanched but you'd be wrong. By the way, the moons of the planets hold far more fascination to the seasoned watcher like me, but I know you must have such things in the works. Used to be that only magazines or little else where I could get information with this quality. Good job!
I was a nerd in Junior High in 1977 and loved planetary exploration. I was so excited about the discovery of the Uranian rings. I clipped the little article out of the newspaper and showed it to my science teacher. He was so supportive of my enthusiasm, my peers were not, lol.
i love these so much! i love studying about space and fun facts ! fun fact: Uranus cant be seen without a naked eye if you do have a naked eye you can see it.

Uranus' orbital eccentricity between aphelion and perihelion is the largest in the solar system _when measured in absolute units of distance,_ but the percentage difference is much smaller than Mercury's orbital eccentricity.
I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL...anything to do with our solar system but your channel is everything I want.. EVERYTHING!! PLEASE keep doing video's like these. Can I ask tho how did you get in astronomy? It's something I've dreamed of doing but don't know where to start..thank you :)
Just always had an interest in it from when I was very small. The good news is you don't need to have a degree to be an amateur astronomer! Go read books, look up Wikipedia (it can be quite the rabbit hole), see if you have a local astronomer group in your town. Enjoy!
Just to say thanks for making these videos, they're really well produced. Any plans to do one for Neptune? it always seems to be the neglected planet :)
Quite possibly, the techniques used to detect planets hundreds of light years, and galaxies tens of thousands to billions of light years away don't work on objects so much closer. Additionally, it is very very very dark out in the outer reaches of the solar system; which is also very mind bogglingly expansive, , so any objects of even planetary scale will be exceptionally difficult to detect due to there being very little sun light reflected back.
Humans: We want to discover the mysteries of the solar system. Mercury: Venus: Earth: Mars: Jupiter: Saturn: Uranus: Take me out to dinner first Neptune: Pluto:
Not calling this planet "Caelus" is and will remain, one of the most massive blunders in all of astronomy.
We fell victim to one of the classic blunders!
HAHA IT SOUNDS LIKE BUTT THAT'S HILARIOUS

only a problem for the English language.
Caelus is an undeniably cooler name but Uranus is still pretty cool if English didn’t have the awkward coincidence 😩
Calling it ‘Uranus’ was one of the greatest moves in human history.
Until someone changes the name of this planet, it can never be seriously discussed. Never ever.
Well... they could call it Caelus.
They call it Ouranus in Russia and many other countries.

shawna dee I wish freezing humans for deep space travel was possible. If we freeze ourselves, we will die. 80% of our body is water, and that water would freeze, and destroy our internal organs, or damage us internally.
Such a chill and perfect voice for these videos. I was in broadcasting training and I gotta say, you are stellar at what you do. ✨💜
Ouranos is such an epic sounding name. Why have we relegated this planet to a Latinized joke...
yeah! in finnish it is spelled almost like that...

It’s weird how some adults still laugh at school yard comedy, it’s wild corny.
@@lilSenDog yeah, Uranus is very corny 😂😂😂😜
@@lilSenDog Is it also mad dope and stupid fresh, Nick Cannon?
This is one of the most informative videos I've watched about our solar system's 7th planet. Thank you very much for doing the research, editing, and sharing this video, Astrum! :)
So glad someone made a nice video about my favorite childhood planet!
Maybe in a distand future life will move to Uranus, when the sun expand.
Maybe we/ they could float in the atmosphere or float on the liquid.
Of course that would need advanced technologie.
@@jupitereuropa-e3w Hmm. I just made a comment about that possibility.
I couldn’t read that without bursting out with laughter
@@PINKISODAS You Laugh At Horrible Comedy.
RookieXVVista ik I’m even worse than I was 8 months ago
Lets just call it Ouranos from now on.
I was going to agree but then I realized it spelled like Our anus. Kind of backfired.
No let's call it George like how it originally was supposed to be named
That sounds like what Vladimir Lenin would name it
The easiest and most logical solution would just be *pronouncing it correctly* ...but that already tells me that there is no solution in the first place. It wouldn't be half as sad if not more than half the top comments are lame jokes that you've already read/heard 50 times at least
I guess it's your ancestors fault for mashing a few languages together without thinking of actual rules...most your vowels aren't even vowels per definition (they have multiple ways of pronouncing them(every vowel), often consist of more than one sound(A, I, O) and "U" is the worst since it even has a consonant in it's primary pronounciation). If your "U" had the [u] sound instead of [ju] (and no other possibilities) and your "a" the [a] instead of [ei] then the pronounciation would be either uniquely different or would be written "Yuranus"
That's what written languages (or at least almost everyone except english) are supposed to be there for...to be able to write out what's spoken in a way so that someone else can read it and know how it's spoken from just reading it...
Btw. that's also why you have such a hard time learning other languages and vice versa...for other languages you mostly just have to learn vocabularies after knowing the rules to master the language, with english you literally have to speak it for years to most likely never really master it since the "rules" don't involve the million special cases
Just realize I may come across as salty or something...I'm not, I wasn't necessarily ranting but just pouring out my thoughts
It sounds like Our anus.
I’m 29, the fact that throughout my entire life, the poles of Uranus have either been in complete darkness or complete light the entire time and still has a long time left, AMAZES me!
Pluto has it even longer
The places where the sun doesn't shine!
"Diamond-berg"
First and probably only time I'll ever hear that word.
Me:*looks at title*
Also me:ah shit here we go again with the comment section
I call the planet Ouranos, and I encourage everyone to do the same.
This whole trifle is non-existent outside of the English language, since the other languages don´t pronounce "U" as "you". So the phonetic of Ouranos is indeed closer to a rather universal pronounciation of a greek word.
And for example in Czech language, the planet is called "Uran" (pronounced "Oo - Ran"), which kind of makes sense, because it is not necessary to keep the latin endings like "-us", since they often express adjectives and adverbs. We also don´t say "Mercurius" or "Saturnus".
.
So what if somebody wants to say "anus?" Is that a really big problem? If somebody wants to laugh, let them laugh. I for one, am not taking laughter out of this world by any means.
You can say "anus" as much as you like and as often as you like. Just don´t exepect everyone to giggle along all the time. :-)
Stephen Gillie ouranos like....Our Anus?....hmm interesting
Mine is better. You-rah'-noose. It sounds more classy.
you have done an excelent job again. the quality is good enough for the classroom if you ask me.
Uranus often gets skipped over because of its bland colour and appearance compared to other planets but it has some really unique features. I also love the fact that it has a moon called "Margaret". Really, it should also have moons called names like "Pat", "Arthur" and "Jean" to fit in better.
Nigga what kind of stupid name is pat
“The first unique aspect of Uranus, is its name. “ There’s 2 agreed upon ways to pronounce it’s name in English but you will either have to say “URINEus” or “urANUS”. It’s an unfortunate lose lose situation for the name of such a beautiful planet! 😆
Why don't you quit while you're not ahead
not true, you could say it without making the A a long A sound, and use the short A, instead, like ur-a-us, instead of ur-ae-nus
oh i get it that was the "Urine" us
I call Uranus and Venus the black sheep of our solar system. Those guys defy science, like a BOSS!
they defy secular "science" with its billions of years..they do not defy Biblical science at all.
Biblical science.
That's it.
I'm finally struck dead by the world's stupidity.
steve mcdonald Sorry for your childhood indoctrination and low IQ Steve.
Biblical science lol!
i love me sum gud "bible science" xD
Well done. You have managed to teach more about Uranus than anything I have learned in elementary and junior high school which is long enough ago not to mention.
well perhaps thats because you are more receptive to learning about things in adulthood. So it wasnt that it was the fault of anyone that you didnt learn about science as a teenager, its just that your attention was focused on boobies, and not uranus.
💀
Very intresting, well made. Thank you for this great stuff!
You sound like you're holding back laughter. :>
Uranus has a really cool looking colour, Neptune as well. what!? i actually didnt know Uranus had rings, fun to learn new stuff!
Astrum has the best Channel on RUclips
It is so sad we're not exploring the outer solar system, there are whole worlds out there!
We actually are.. Duh
unfortunately we don't have probes at Uranus and Neptune, nor are they planned, and no new designs for Pluto, Sedna etc are underway. I wish humanity would be more dedicated to astronomy. We could have telescopes built and science reached so much more.
+Galaxia true, but im sure soon some m-class mission would be deployed for these outer planets, once we are done exploring the inner planets. Coz its always in to out. Juno is now doing good, and soon we will reach out to these. But pluto has new horizons now.
There are no missions planned, which means even in the long run. How could you be sure if NASA isn't even sure. Jupiter is no outer solar system and New Horizons is past Pluto, I was saying no new and thus orbital mission for Pluto planned. In short you're confirming there are no missions in outer solar system. Please don't waste our energy with meaningless debates :p
+Galaxia k, let's ask join hands and be sad.
How lucky are we to have such a diverse and interesting solar system
The orbits of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto were first discovered using Bode's law. A simple geometric progression based on the mass of the sun.
It has since been 'discredited' because modern astronomers failed to take into account the fact that other stars have different masses. They then used this to determine that Pluto wasn't a planet.
Yes my anus has a gravitational pull on bitches
@@PixP6 Ok you need to shut up
I liked his dramatic pauses when discribing the equinox. Really packed a punch to the narration.
Forget diamonds. I'm a geologist, the pressure will be way to high for the diamond. There will be a liquid carbon layer with a rather high viscosity with an exocitic allotrope of carbon, possibly with metallic properties.

All that happens in Uranus?
GEOLOGY IS NOT REAL SCIENCE!! -Dr Sheldon cooper
Imagine trying to present this is school as a teacher and keeping a straight face
Uranus contains thick toxic gas, it comes out into space quite often.
Reptilian alien uh oh... stinky
Jim Man or you just need to lighten up and take a joke Uranus jokes will forever be universally funny
Jim Man Okay boomer
I would rather just skip the subject altogether and face the consequences like a boss. Then sue the people who gave this name to the planet. Because funny or not, URANUS JOKES ARE INEVITABLE.
This is a great vid and commentary, thank you 😊
The latest images of Uranus by JWST is simply amazing. Mindblowing.
Great video! BTW, really enjoyed the background music, creates a kind of soothing and immersive feeling.
Uranus is the only giant other than Jupiter to have an undisrupted satellite system. We really need to send an orbiter of the Galileo/Cassini type to study the Uranian system.
It was proposed but I believe Neptune was chosen. We need to get back out to the outer solar system and orbit the 3 outer planets. I also think we should take a peak at Sedna when it reaches Perihelion, it might be an inner oort cloud object
I know that Neptune's original satellite system was disrupted when Triton was captured and destroyed any other large round moons it may have had, but how is Saturn's system disrupted?
An orbiter zipping around Uranus.
I agree, we need to study Uranus in great detail. We need to send probes deep inside Uranus.
In a video game i did that as well as land on the largest moon and back
ok... I'm just gonna say it it upfront so you can get all the laughs out, but...
Uranus is My Favorite.
yeah... yeah... laugh it up!
Anyway... after watching all these vids in your series (which are very well produced)... I changed my fav. I used to be a Mars or Saturn guy.... but Now Id have to admit that Uranus has left an impression on me. It seems a pretty mystifying planet and I like the enigma of it. Also... I am completely mezmerized by the pic of it @0:13 . I wish someone would explain exactly what this pic of Uranus is.
Great videos.
It's a Hubble image of Uranus, I believe in the infrared. Check out more about it here: solarsystem.nasa.gov/galleries/hubble-tracks-clouds-and-moons-at-uranus#!
Thanks bro. I love uranus too.
Cool cool?
Of all the planets in the Solar System, I have to say that my favorite is and always will be Earth.
Thank you for this little documentary. I'm an avid astronomer, yet I still learned new things!
9:57 Auriel has a really good haircut
What
I agree that it is one of the most interesting planets. Didn't think it would have so much detail and info.
(beavis & butthead laugh) Uranus has only one big moon... yea, yea... and it's a real gas giant
Isabella Lopez At this juncture, one might speculate as to the age bracket of one Isabella Lopez, respectively. As we do not have the time, nor resources in which to break down, define, and dissect the comedic forces at play, shall we then simply assume that the unconventional delivery of prepubescent Texan vernacular circa 1990 is unfamiliar to Ms. Lopez. Thus any further dispute of interplanetary gas giants and their accompanying satellites would be trivial..... in other words, " this shit went right over yer head"
White Dinosaur No, you seem to be just another curious person showing interest in space, I want to see more missions to Uranus and Neptune as well we don't know very much about either of those planets since voyager 2s fly by.
Lmao lmao lmao I'm dead I'm dead lolololololololololol
hahahahaha
rush1er its also very close to a blackhole...
Such a bizarre and beautiful planet, with very interesting moons! You make such amazing videos! I have to search hard to find the good stuff! Your videos are top quality! I can't wait for more! Well done indeed! Thanks a lot!
I’m going to get my young brother and sister interested in planets thanks to your videos.
You’re doing a great job sir!!!!

Let's just fucking call the planet "your anus" already just for one day in 1st of April
Uranus was depleted
Amazing how many people think they are clever
what about *Urectum*
She's my favorite planet. I hate it when people joke about this beutiful gem.
Finally. A civilised comment
sadly but true, this is the reason they should call this planet URANOS in english, how we call the greek god in german
Well this popped up in my recommendation because I posted something about Mass Effect Andromeda... I’m years late to the party and initial reaction is to expect Uranus jokes and it hasn’t failed me yet.
Very well done and fascinating!!!!!!
Ask you about ass
Dear Astrum, excellent videos dude. You might think I would be bored with another video on the planets because I remember when the Pioneer spacecraft were lanched but you'd be wrong. By the way, the moons of the planets hold far more fascination to the seasoned watcher like me, but I know you must have such things in the works. Used to be that only magazines or little else where I could get information with this quality. Good job!
I was a nerd in Junior High in 1977 and loved planetary exploration. I was so excited about the discovery of the Uranian rings. I clipped the little article out of the newspaper and showed it to my science teacher. He was so supportive of my enthusiasm, my peers were not, lol.
Thank you for your videos. Thank you for saying the name properly.

guys, its not funny. he confirmed the axial tilt is because poor Uranus was pummelled by a very large object
i love these so much! i love studying about space and fun facts ! fun fact: Uranus cant be seen without a naked eye if you do have a naked eye you can see it.
Yes my anus is blinding

Millions of people viewing Uranus, this is incredible work.
Very informative and beautifully arranged material. Your commentary is very easy to listen to, always on point, and never boring. Miranda holds my interest at the moment. I almost felt pity when I first looked at the way its been damaged. Thank you so much. New subscriber. Australia

I would like to start a petition to rename Uranus to "URectum."
I just subbed. i so wish i found your channel awhile ago. Great content!! very well put together. I have a similar subscriber base so i know how tough itis to build a channel up like this. You def have my support. Do you have a patreon i can go donate too?
Awesome informations from Uranus... The most beautiful planeta for me... ALL the best from Brazil!!!
2021 and this is still my favorite astrum vid! Soothes my anxiety & it feels like in space.
Uranus' orbital eccentricity between aphelion and perihelion is the largest in the solar system _when measured in absolute units of distance,_ but the percentage difference is much smaller than Mercury's orbital eccentricity.
Funny, my b/f told me the same thing last night. I barked, "Just pull out, damn it!"
I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL...anything to do with our solar system but your channel is everything I want.. EVERYTHING!! PLEASE keep doing video's like these.
Can I ask tho how did you get in astronomy? It's something I've dreamed of doing but don't know where to start..thank you :)
Just always had an interest in it from when I was very small. The good news is you don't need to have a degree to be an amateur astronomer! Go read books, look up Wikipedia (it can be quite the rabbit hole), see if you have a local astronomer group in your town. Enjoy!
Good video man very informative. Thank you
More Our Solar Systems Moons videos and a playlist for them. Love the channel.
I swear every “Uranus” related videos will always leave me wheezing
Yea cause your immature just like everyone else in the comments.

All jokes aside, Uranus is my favorite planet and it's so beautiful with its calming pale cyan color.
Just to say thanks for making these videos, they're really well produced. Any plans to do one for Neptune? it always seems to be the neglected planet :)
It's going to be my next video actually! :) And thank you!!!
Astrum Looking forward to it!
How can astronomers know about planets galaxies and hundreds of light years away, but not know if there's a "planet x" in our own solar system?
Quite possibly, the techniques used to detect planets hundreds of light years, and galaxies tens of thousands to billions of light years away don't work on objects so much closer.
Additionally, it is very very very dark out in the outer reaches of the solar system; which is also very mind bogglingly expansive, , so any objects of even planetary scale will be exceptionally difficult to detect due to there being very little sun light reflected back.
