Could life exist on Uranus, the coldest and most mysterious planet in our Solar System?
For decades, scientists believed Uranus was a dead, frozen world.
But new research suggests the data from Voyager 2’s 1986 flyby may have been distorted by a solar storm, meaning we might know far less about Uranus than we thought.
In this episode of Xenopedia, we explore what alien life might look like in the atmosphere of Uranus.
