Astronomers have made a groundbreaking discovery about Uranus' rotation using decades of data from the Hubble Space Telescope, resolving a long-standing mystery surrounding the planet's magnetic field.
A decade of Hubble observations reveals Uranus takes 17 hours, 14 minutes, and 52 seconds to rotate. This new data, 28 seconds longer than previous estimates, may reshape our understanding of the ice giant's geography and future missions.
Witness the breathtaking spectacle of the seven-planet alignment captured by astrophotographer Josh Dury in a stunning photograph. Discover how Dury's meticulous efforts revealed this rare celestial event in all its glory!
