URANUS THE WORK DONE PUPIL 8 M CLASS BAVRINA LUBOV
URANUS IS THE SEVENTH PLANET FROM THE SUN. THIS PLANET - THE GIANT, AS IT IS THE THIRD AND FOURTH DIAMETER BY WEIGHT. OPENING: MARCH 13, 1781 RADIUS: 25,362 KM DISTANCE FROM THE SUN: 2,877,000,000 KM AGE: 4.50 BILLION YEARS THE PERIOD OF COMPLETE REVOLUTION AROUND THE SUN: 84 EARTH YEARS. URANUS IS HEAVIER THAN THE EARTH 14.5 TIMES.
SATELLITES THE SYSTEM URANUS HAS 27 NATURAL SATELLITES. THE NAMES CHOSEN FOR THEM BY THE NAMES OF CHARACTERS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE. THERE ARE FIVE MAIN BIGGEST SATELLITES ARE MIRANDA, ARIEL, UMBRIEL, TITANIA AND OBERON. MIRANDA OBERON TITANIA
THE RINGS OF URANUS URANUS HAS A SYSTEM OF RINGS, CONSISTING OF VERY DARK PARTICLES. THIS - THE SECOND RING SYSTEM FOUND IN THE SOLAR SYSTEM (THE FIRST WAS THE SYSTEM OF SATURN). URANUS 13 KNOWN RINGS, THE MOST STRIKING OF WHICH IS THE EPSILON RING. THE RINGS OF URANUS IS VERY YOUNG. THIS SUGGESTS THAT THE RINGS ARE NOT FORMED WITH THE PLANET.
COLOR PLANET URANUS HAS A BLUE-GREEN COLOR. THE COMPOSITION OF THE ATMOSPHERE INCLUDES HYDROGEN URANUS (83%), METHANE (2%) AND HELIUM (15%). METHANE AND OTHER HYDROCARBONS ARE FOUND IN MUCH LARGER QUANTITIES THAN, FOR EXAMPLE, SATURN AND JUPITER. THAT IS WHY THE PLANET APPEARS BLUE BECAUSE RED RAYS IS VERY WELL ABSORBED BY METHANE HAZE. THE THICKNESS OF THE ATMOSPHERE IS VERY POWERFUL - NOT LESS THAN 8000 KM.
URANUS ATMOSPHERE - UNUSUALLY QUIET COMPARED TO OTHER ATMOSPHERES OF THE GIANT PLANETS, EVEN COMPARED WITH NEPTUNE, WHICH IS SIMILAR TO URANUS AND ON THE COMPOSITION AND SIZE. SUCH PEACE OF MIND IN THE ATMOSPHERE CAN BE EXPLAINED BY THE EXTREMELY LOW INTERNAL HEAT. IT IS MUCH SMALLER THAN THAT OF THE OTHER GIANT PLANETS. THE LOWEST RECORDED TEMPERATURE IS -224 C, MAKING THE COLDEST PLANET AMONG THE PLANETS OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM - EVEN COLDER THAN THE MORE REMOTE FROM THE SUN, NEPTUNE AND. TIME OWN PLANET'S ROTATION IS 17 HOURS 24 MINUTES. THE PERIOD OF COMPLETE REVOLUTION AROUND THE SUN: 84 EARTH YEARS. IT HAS SEVERAL FEATURES - THE ROTATION AXIS PERPENDICULAR TO THE PLANE OF ITS ORBIT, AND IT IS ROTATED OPPOSITE TO THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION AROUND THE SUN. A COMPARISON OF THE SIZE OF EARTH AND URANU
INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT URANUS. 1. AROUND URANUS SPINS ON ITS AXIS "LYING ON ITS SIDE A LITTLE UPSIDE DOWN." IT CAN BE COMPARED WITH A ROLLING BALL. 2. URANUS THIN RINGS, WHICH CONSIST OF A VERY DARK AND SMALL PARTICLES. 13 KNOWN RINGS OF VARYING TRANSPARENCY. 3. URANIUM - THE COLDEST PLANET IN OUR SOLAR SYSTEM, WHICH IS THE SEVENTH (FROM THE SUN) MOVES RADIALLY ALMOST THREE BILLION KILOMETERS. URANUS GIVES LESS HEAT THAN RECEIVES FROM THE SUN. 4. URANUS WAS THE FIRST PLANET DISCOVERED WITH THE AID OF A TELESCOPE. 5. URANUS ROTATES AROUND ITS OWN AXIS WITH AN INCLINATION OF 99 DEGREES. FOR COMPARISON, THE SLOPE OF OUR EARTH IS ONLY 23.5 DEGREES. THEREFORE URANUS MOVES LIKE A HUGE BALL, RATHER THAN "TOP", AS THE OTHER PLANETS. 6. IN GOOD WEATHER CONDITIONS, URANUS CAN BE SEEN WITH THE NAKED EYE. 7. SUMMER LASTS 42 YEARS THE DAY IS ABOUT 17 HOURS. BUT DUE TO THE INCLINATION, ONE POLE IS USUALLY ROTATED CONTINUOUSLY TO THE SUN. THIS MEANS THAT DAY AT THE NORTH POLE LAST HALF OF THE YEAR, WHICH IS - 84 EARTH YEARS. IF YOU COULD STAND ON THE NORTH POLE, YOU WOULD SEE THE SUNRISE, FOR 42 YEARS, THE NORTH POLE IS IN THE RAYS OF THE SUN, AND HAVING GONE BEYOND THE HORIZON OF 42 YEARS COMES DARKNESS.
