I believe that right now, the best solution is the one proposed by CGP gray, that is, to pronounce Uranos in a similar way to how the greeks did, oo-RON-ohs
I mention Gray's take in the longer version of this video (TT, IG, FB) and I think he's also right that just keeping the original name (e.g. "George") would have been better! At least then we could talk about how things are named and how Uranus was the first planet 'discovered' as opposed to just 'noticed' (you can see the first 6 planets with the naked eye).
I think how you treat Uranus should be a personal decision that no regulatory body has a right or even the authority to inform, let alone dictate. Uranus is Uranus, and it should be up to you when and how you use it, or if you even choose to use it at all.
There's an MMA fighter called Mianus and it sounds exactly as you think. The announcer got mixed up and one point and referred to him as 'his anus' as if his name is just anus, which is great.
Vsauce, really thanks for making this video. Caelus definitely sounds better than the original name, as the planet won't be an innocent subject-of-the-joke anymore. As someone who loves every planets of the Solar System, and especially Saturn and Uranus, I really hate when people make silly memes and weird puns about them. There's NOTHING wrong with Uranus, it's just a beautiful blue-colored planet, 7th closest from the Sun; has extremely cold temperatures and has 27 moons discovered for now. It *shouldn't* be the subject of an awful joke.
Terra was a place inhabited by creatures called countryballs. Countryballs served as companions workers or even leaders. (player) it is time for your journey to start
Wasn’t named by NASA. Uranus was discovered in 1781 and a consensus on its name was not reached until 70 years later. Meanwhile NASA came into existence in 1958. Plus they’re not even the ones responsible for naming; that would be the International Astronomical Union.
Fun fact, saw this in a book from Neil Degrasse Tyson. The guy who discovered Uranus wanted to name it after the king of England at the time. Meaning the planetary line up was almost Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and then George.
God, the British have got to be the most narcissistic people to ever exist. They brutally colonized 1/5 of the planet and still had the audacity to try and pre-colonize the Solar System. America had the right idea in revolting early on…Canada is STILL a British subject for some weird reason
