The recent discovery of Uranus’s day is an essential milestone in planetary science. Scientists have better understood the planet’s rotation using observations by the Hubble Space Telescope.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) - A day at Uranus just got a little longer. Scientists reported Monday that observations by the Hubble Space Telescope have confirmed it takes Uranus 17 hours, 14 minutes ...

It Took Scientists 11 Years, But They've Finally Figured Out How Long a Day on Uranus Is The duration of the day impacts many natural processes of Earth. This is not true just for Earth but also ...

Uranus’s atmospheric loss is driven by its strange magnetic field, the axis of which points at an angle compared to the axis on which the planet spins.

According to scientists, data collected by the Hubble Space Telescope indicates that Uranus completes a full rotation in 17 hours, 14 minutes, and 52 seconds.

A single day on Uranus is around 17 hours, the amount of time it takes for the planet to rotate on its axis. The planet completes one orbit around the Sun every 84 Earth years.

A day at Uranus just got a little longer. ... 14 minutes and 52 seconds to complete a full rotation. That’s 28 seconds longer than estimates by NASA’s Voyager 2 spacecraft in the 1980s. ...
