Absolutely breathtaking.
Interesting that they phrase the headline almost as if to imply uniqueness. My impression was that Saturn's hexagon was the unique situation (occurring, hypothetically, only under very specific conditions). Is it expected then that Uranus and Neptune's poles will look different still?
- mcguire 10y agoUranus has an axial tilt of around 90°, so it is undoubtedly completely wacky. I have no idea what Neptune's looks like.
- gregwtmtno 10y agoNo one does. Neptune and Uranus have been visited by only Voyager 2. Neptune's pole wasn't covered in the flyby.
