Uranus - The Ice Giant Planet with a Unique Tilt and Cyan Hue #1485378 (License: Personal Use)

This image shows Uranus, an ice giant composed primarily of water, ammonia, and methane ices over a rocky core, with its characteristic pale cyan color caused by methane in its upper atmosphere absorbing red light. Though appearing nearly featureless in visible light, advanced imaging reveals subtle banding and seasonal storms, especially as the planet approaches equinox. Its extreme 98° axial tilt gives it a unique “rolling” orbit around the Sun.
