    Want To See Uranus With The Naked Eye?

    Source: PITTSBURGH (KDKA)

    – All jokes aside, tonight is the night if you want to see Uranus.

    The plant will reach opposition on Oct. 19, meaning it will be directly opposite the sun, bringing it closer and brighter to earth.

    Experts say you may be able to see the icy blue planet with the naked eye, but if not, binoculars should do the trick.

    NASA says Uranus should be visible all night long and its blue-green color is unmistakable.

    Where should you look to find Uranus?

    The experts say start in the southeast sky within the constellation Pisces, the fish.

    “Scan the constellation carefully, and look for a tiny blue-green disk to pop out against the background of fainter stars,” National Geographic Magazine says.

    The clear skies in the Northeast should mean you’ll have no problem seeing Uranus.

        It's pronounced, "oo-RAH-noose".
        Curiosity never hurt anyone. It was stupidity that killed the cat.

          I was told it's your-en-us

          I had a science teacher who simply referred to it as "the seventh planet."

            I did a presentation on it in eighth grade. I knew how it was really supposed to be pronounced but I ignored that fact.
            "I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

                    This thread reminds me of a Futurama episode. In the future everyone apparently got tried of this joke, so they changed the name to urectum.
