NASA's Voyager 2 helped shape scientists' understanding of Uranus but also introduced unexplained oddities. A recent data ...
Almost 40 years ago, Voyager 2 passed Uranus. Since then, people have been puzzling over the measurement data collected there ...
When the Voyager 2 spacecraft became the first and only mission to fly by Uranus in 1986, it defined the way astronomers ...
For decades, we've thought we had a pretty good grasp of Uranus. The penultimate planet, our best measurements suggest, has a whole slew of idiosyncrasies. And one of the most puzzling is its magnetic ...
Scientists say that since Uranus is extremely far away, it has been hard to learn about it. Voyager 2's measurements are the best and the closest observations of the planet to date.
"The Voyager 2 flyby of Uranus in 1986 revealed an unusually oblique and off-centred magnetic field," the researchers wrote.
A reassessment of data from NASA's Voyager 2 has revealed that Uranus' moon Miranda may contain a subsurface ocean, ...
Voyager 2's visit to Uranus may have left us with the complete wrong impression of the ice giant for nearly 40 years, ...
Much of the understanding of the seventh planet comes from a brief flyby nearly 40 years ago, which researchers now say ...
When Voyager 2 flew past the ice giant 38 years ago, it revealed a magnetosphere warped by solar winds, a finding uncovered through recent analysis of archival data.
Much of the knowledge about Uranus was gleaned when NASA’s robotic spacecraft Voyager 2 conducted a five-day flyby in 1986.
