It was able to take the temperature of the upper part of Uranus' atmosphere, called the thermosphere. Since then, Earth-based telescopes have been able to measure the temperature of Uranus ...
Following the Voyager 2 flyby in August 1986, astronomers have been able to maintain a steady compilation of temperature readings of Uranus’s thermosphere. The mystery behind Uranus’s cooling trend is ...
The last and only spacecraft to fly past Uranus was Voyager 2 in 1986, on its way out of the Solar System. It was able to take the temperature of the upper part of Uranus’ atmosphere, called the ...
The project seeks to better understand how energy flows through the turbopause, a portion of Earth's atmosphere where the mesosphere and the thermosphere meet some 56 miles (90 kilometers) up. To ...
Most electrons that create the aurora have a moderate amount of energy, but scientists want to know more about how electrons on either side on that scale — more and less energy — affect the electrical ...
