An oddity among Sol's gas giants, Uranus is mostly unexplored and uninhabited by [[humanity]], as its distance from [[Sol]] makes traveling there costly. Its moons are poorly-understood when compared to those of [[Jupiter]]. Despite this, Uranus has a number of distinctive features that separate it from its neighbors. Firstly, its axial tilt has turned its poles past a 90<sup>o</sup> angle to the orbital plane. Secondly, Uranus has a number of anomalous radiation spikes that have not been addressed or explained. {{Ref/Reuse|Encyclopedia}}
An oddity among Sol's gas giants, Uranus is distinctive for two main reasons. Firstly, its axial tilt has turned its poles past a 90<sup>o</sup> angle to the orbital plane. Secondly, Uranus has a number of anomalous radiation spikes that have not been addressed or explained. This is in spite of it being mostly unexplored by the [[UNSC]], as its distance from [[Sol]] makes traveling there costly. For this reason, the moons of the planet are also poorly understood when compared to the [[Jovian Moons]] of [[Jupiter]].<ref name="Encyclopedia"/>
