The Discovery of Uranus Someone once put forward an attractive though unlikely theory. Throughout the Earth’s annual revolution around the sun, there is one point of space always hidden from our eyes. This point is the opposite part of the Earth’s orbit, which is always hidden by the sun...

Motivated by the discovery of the first two irregular satellites of Uranus in 1997, our team has conducted a search covering approximately 90% of the dynamically stable region around Uranus. We have discovered three additional objects moving at rates consistent with satellite orbital motion. At the...
If a space probe today sent back evidence that such a world existed it would cause not much more sensation than Sir William Herschel's discovery of a new planet, Uranus, in 1781. Herschel was an extraordinary man — no other astronomer has ever covered so vast a field of work — and h...

As the first known planet beyond Saturn, the discovery of Uranus caused something of an upheaval in traditional astronomy and astrology circles. In addition, the timing of Uranus’s discovery coincided with the independence revolutions of America and France and the industrial revolution in England. ...
Discovery of two distant irregular moons of Uranus The systems of satellites and rings surrounding the giant planets in the Solar System have remarkably similar architectures. Closest to each planet are rings with associated moonlets, then larger `regular' satellites on nearly circular o... BJ ...
In the decades following the discovery of Uranus in 1781, astronomers noticed the new planet did not precisely follow its expected path. Urbain Le Verrier and John Couch Adams independently predicted that these differences were caused by the gravitational pull of another, unseen planet. ...
And if we’re talking about the difference between modern and traditional, you know, one place to position that boundary is the discovery of Uranus or ‘George’, right? CB: Right. AC: I mean, it problematized a lot—between the discovery of Uranus, and the Copernican revolution, the re...
