The sideways (یک وری) planet!

 
Uranus is BEAUTIFUL!  It is also funny. It travels (سفر کردن) in space (فضای خارج از هوا یا جو زمین) on it’s side. It would be like our north pole (قطب شمال) was on the side of the Earth and not at the top (بالا).
     There are 8 planets (سیاره) and the sun in our solar system (منظومه شمسی). Uranus is the 7th (seventh) planet from the sun. Uranus is VERY cold and windy (پر باد). It is 216 degrees below zero!  It is sometimes called the Ice Giant (غول). It has 27 moons (ماه)!

One day on earth is 24 hours. 
One day on Uranus is 17 hours.  
If you were 1-year-old on Uranus, you would be 84-years-old on earth!

Winter where you live is about 4 months long.
Winter on Uranus is 21-years-long!

On earth you walk on ground (زمین). Uranus has no ground! The surface (سطح) of Uranus is liquid (مایع) and gases (گازهای).

     In 1986 a NASA spacecraft (سفینه فضایی) called Voyager 2 flew (fly: پرواز کردن) near Uranus to take photos of it. It took the spacecraft 9 years to get to Uranus!

Uranus is beautiful and funny, but it is also sad. Uranus has no life on it.
