I’ve been meaning to tell you…
It’s the moon Ariel, plus maybe a few others. Figured I’d put in comments what the article was about to balance out the name jokes. I used to try and pronounce it with the different accent, but I don’t bother now. It’s the name.
On the actual topic, that’s fascinating that there’s enough gravitational force for Uranus to do what Jupiter does to its moons. Granted Ariel is a lot closer. We really need missions for each of these type moons to get under the ice and see what’s there.
Just read an article about ice under the surface of Mars, perhaps a whole oceans worth. There’s a lot of water out there I don’t know if it necessarily is going to translate into life but it’s cool to find. If nothing else it gives us options if we screw all ours up.
Oh shit, don’t let Nestle see this comment.
Our water is already screwed up with micro plastics.
Microplastic water is next-gen water. Whatever evolves to use it is the winner.
Not to rain on your parade but:

Using seismic activity to probe the interior of Mars, geophysicists have found evidence for a large underground reservoir of liquid water—enough to fill oceans on the planet’s surface.
It’s located in tiny cracks and pores in rock in the middle of the Martian crust, between 11.5 and 20 kilometers below the surface. Even on Earth, drilling a hole a kilometer deep is a challenge.
Ain’t nobody getting to that water anytime soon.

Idk man, personally, I don’t think Uranus [yoor-uh-nuhs] sounds much like “your anus”, but the distinction might be smaller for certain dialects.
Stories like this are why I hope medical science finds a way to extend life expectancy. I’d love to get a few extra decades just to see the cool things that happen.
I, for one, would love to see Uranus before I die
I’ve got bad news about the future for you.
Whatever you think you know about the future, guaranteed you’re wrong.
Your science is the best we got right now, just like the science was in the past. Your predictions are the best we got right now. Your cool shit’s going to look just as dumb to your grandchildren as those rubber monster suits in old movies. Your guesses about the future are going to look as dumb as an episode of the Jetsons.
Lets just hope that our grandchildren will laugh at our dumb predictions that human made climate change will cause a mass extintion event and destroy most of earth’s ability to sustain life
🙄
You should get that checked out
So that’s 3 of 4 gas giants that have possible ocean worlds in their orbits, Europa (also Callisto IIRC?), Enceladus, and now Ariel, any contenders around Neptune?
ah yes, interplanetary swamp ass
Ariel, Uranus.
Why aren’t they in space? Why are they checking out my anus?
Exactly.
Back to space you filthy animals!
