Scientists find Uranus is surprisingly warm, heating up the case for a new planetary mission

Scientists have discovered that Uranus emits 12.5% more internal heat than it receives from the sun, contradicting previous observations from Voyager 2. This finding suggests a different internal structure or evolutionary history for the planet, potentially revealing new insights about its origins and development. The discovery could inform future missions to Uranus and enhance our understanding of planetary atmospheres and climate systems.
