Uranus is the third largest planet in our solar system and, like saturn, has a number of rings but are alot fainter and harder to see. Uranus is on a very
strange slant on its axis, thought to be due to an impact with something very large earrlier on in its life. Uranus also has extremely strong winds on its
surface reaching up to 100 meters per second, going in the opposite direction to others closer to the planets surface.
