🇬🇧🇪🇸 Uranus - Urano : English Lesson

Meaning of "Uranus" ("Urano"), detailed definition, and a short video lesson below.

Uranus is a huge, icy planet that circles the Sun far away from Earth. It is the seventh planet from the Sun, after Saturn and before Neptune. Uranus looks bluish-green because of a gas called methane in its atmosphere. It is made mostly of gases and ice, not rock like Earth, so you couldn’t stand on it. One very special thing about Uranus is that it spins on its side, like a rolling ball, instead of upright like most other planets. It also has rings and many moons, and it takes Uranus about 84 Earth years to go around the Sun just once!
