Diameter
Approximately 32,000 miles
Length of Day
17 Earth hours
Length of Year 84 Earth years Name Ancient Greek god. Visited by Voyager 2 A Seemingly Featureless Planet Uranus, along with Neptune and Pluto, is in the most distant region of our solar system. The giant planet, which is another of the gas giants of our solar system, is more than twice as far away from the Sun as Saturn. If you get a chance to look at Uranus through a telescope, all you will see is a faint blue disk that appears exceptionally dull and lifeless. Even pictures sent back by the Voyager mission and the Hubble Space Telescope seem to show that Uranus is a dull, unexciting place. As always, though, things aren't what they seem. Uranus has many interesting features, including its ring system, varied moons and much more. The bland face that the planet shows to us humans hides high speed winds, the fact that Uranus is tilted on its side and a very mysterious weather system. Read on to find out more about this mysterious world! Uranus from Voyager A picture of Uranus taken by the Voyager 2 spacecraft.

Pluto Facts Average Distance from Sun
Approximately 3.6 billion miles
Number of Moons
One
Diameter
1417 miles
Length of Day
Over 6 Earth days
Length of Year 248 Earth years Name Comes from the Roman god of the underworld. Small, Cold, Dark and Lonely Pluto The last member of our family of planets is Pluto. At an average distance of over three billion miles from the Sun, Pluto, and its tiny moon Charon, are very much off by themselves. Pluto is so small that six moons of the solar system are larger than this small planet. As a matter of fact, there has been a lot of discussion about whether Pluto is a planet at all, given the fact that it is so tiny and its orbit is both an exaggerated ellipse and doesn't fall into the same plane as the orbits of the rest of the planets. If we had it to do over again, Pluto would probably not be classified as a planet, but as a large asteroid. We have been calling it a planet for so long it seems like a shame to change it now, though. Image courtesy of: Hubble Space Telescope An Unknown Icy World Pluto is so far away that even the mighty Hubble Space Telescope can't get us a very good picture. The image at right is the best image to date we have of this distant world. Very little is known about Pluto except that it is very, very cold and exceptionally dark. At this distance, the Sun is very much like all the rest of the stars you would see from its surface.

    Length of Year 165 Earth years Name Roman god of the sea. Visited by Voyager 2 A Windy, Cold Blue World Neptune is the eighth planet from the Sun and, at this distance, the Sun looks a whole lot like the other stars that would be visible from this planet. Actually, there are times when Neptune is the furthest planet from the Sun. Pluto, which has a very elliptical orbit, is sometimes closer to the Sun that Neptune for a period of time, but, for the most part, Neptune is closer to the Sun than Pluto. Neptune was also the last planet visited by Voyager 2 before it left our solar system. Before the arrival of the Voyager mission in 1989, we knew very little about this planet because of its great distance from us. As usual, though, Voyager's visit gave us a lot of surprises. We found out that is was a very cold, windy place with very interesting clouds and a moon that actually had "geysers" something like the ones we have here on Earth. In addition, the history-making mission discovered an additional six moons that were unknown to us. All in all, Neptune turned out to be a big surprise to almost everybody.

    Diameter
    Approximately 86,000 miles
    Length of Day
    10 hours, 39 minutes
    Length of Year 29.5 years Name Roman god of agriculture Visited by Pioneer 11, Voyager 1, Voyager 2, Cassini (2004) The Solar System's "Lord of the Rings" Saturn has been a source of wonder and amazement for Earth dwellers since ancient history. This sense of wonder increased in 1610 when Galileo turned his first telescope on this giant planet and was the first person to see Saturn's beautiful ring system. What Galileo saw, although he didn't see it clearly, was the beautiful system of rings that surround the giant planet. His early telescope wasn't good enough to show details in the rings, so he wasn't quite sure what he was seeing, but he certainly realized that it was something very special. (Saturn was the first planet I ever saw through my telescope and I will never forget how stunning it was to see the rings for the first time.) The advantage that we have now is that we can see the rings of Saturn using almost any moderately priced telescope. A good telescope allows us to see that there isn't just one ring around Saturn, but that what appears to be one ring through a low powered telescope is revealed as a complicated system of rings through a good telescope.

As a matter of fact, there are two moons in the solar system that are larger than this planet! Jupiter's moon Ganymede and Saturn's moon Titan are both larger than the closest planet to the Sun. In addition, the surface temperature on Mercury varies widely, with the side of the planet facing the Sun having an average temperature of over 650 degrees Fahrenheit, while the "dark" side of the planet has an average temperature less than 270 degrees below zero Fahrenheit. Even though Mercury is one of our closest planetary neighbors, we don't know a whole lot about it. It has only been visited by one spacecraft, Mariner 10. Since the planet is so close to the Sun, it's not safe to have the Hubble Space Telescope take pictures of it.
