Giant Jupiter is easy to recognize by its stripes and Great Red Spot. Shiny rings make Saturn stand out. But what’s so special about the other two gas giant planets Uranus and Neptune? What makes them blue? Why is Uranus tipped on its side?
They both have a bunch of moons - and rings too! NASA’s Voyager 2 briefly flew by in 1986 and 1989. It’s time to go back and orbit these mysterious planets in the outer solar system.
Dr. Fran Bagenal and Dr. Nick Schneider both work at the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics and the Department of Astrophysical and Planetary Sciences at the University of Colorado Boulder.
