Planet Uranus 3D Screensaver
-
Version
1.0
Uranus is unique in our solar system because it is
tilted 98 degrees. When viewed from Earth, it appears
to rotate on its side! At different times throughout
its orbit, we can actually view one of the planet's
poles head-on. The atmosphere is composed of hydrogen,
helium, and methane. The temperature in the upper
atmosphere is so cold that the methane condenses and
forms a thin cloud layer which gives the planet its
blue-green appearance. Uranus is the farthest planet
from Earth that can be seen with the unaided eye but
of course this can only happen on a clear, dark night.
How about having the opportunity to watch this unique
planet any time you like? All you need is this
terrific Planet Uranus 3D Screensaver on your desktop!
