Uranus Is Hiding 8000-Km Deep Ocean? New Study Presents Thrilling Hints
A fascinating new study has shed light on the mysterious interiors of Uranus and Neptune, two of the least explored planets in our solar system. Using advanced computer simulations, scientists have proposed that beneath their bluish hydrogen-and-helium atmospheres lie distinct layers of material that don’t mix, much like oil and water.
Uranus and Neptune May Conceal Vast Oceans of Water
We might finally understand what’s going on inside Uranus and Neptune, and the answer is pretty surprising: They may each contain an ocean of water. “We didn’t really know anything before,” about their interiors,
Huge Water Oceans Might Be Lurking Deep Within Uranus And Neptune
Uranus and Neptune were only visited once by human spacecraft when Voyager 2 passed by them almost 40 years ago. During those visits, scientists measured peculiar magnetic fields unlike those seen around other planets.
