Astronomers Study The Gas Around Uranus

And you thought your day job was unfulfilling.

An astronomer at the SETI Institute has discovered two more rings of dust and debris orbiting planet Uranus, bringing the total to a lucky thirteen.

Comparing images taken from the Voyager with those of the NASA Hubble Space Telescope, the astronomers believe planetary moons may also be found in the two new gassy clouds swirling violently around Uranus. According to the latest issue of Science journal, this will be the first addition to the ring system for the blue-balled planet in almost two decades.

In a related story, scientists in Virginia have announced their plan to study strange red bumps forming on the underside of Venus, which recently discharged a white sticky substance now hurdling through space straight towards -- wait for it -- Uranus.
