First ever X-rays from Uranus could finally shed light on the mysterious icy giant IANSApr 1, 2021, 14:27 IST IANS In a finding that may help scientists learn more about Uranus, astronomers have detected X-rays from this enigmatic ice giant planet in our solar system, for the first time. Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun and has two sets of rings around its equator. The planet, which has four times the diameter of Earth, rotates on its side, making it different from all other planets in the solar system.
