Uranus' color isn't green, it's greenish-blue, and so is Neptune's: Neptune and Uranus seen in true colours for first time
(www.bbc.com)
- Previous images of Neptune and Uranus, particularly from Voyager 2, were inaccurately blue and green due to image processing for detail enhancement.
- New research analyzed data from Hubble and VLT telescopes to reveal their "true" colors are both a similar shade of greenish-blue.
- Neptune still has a slightly bluer tinge due to a thinner haze layer.
- Uranus may appear slightly greener in summer/winter but bluer in spring/autumn due to its unique tilt.
- This research corrects a long-held misconception about these distant planets.
Are you telling me we'll have to find new words for every world's "geo"graphy and "geo"logy too? That won't be convenient.
Honestly I think we should just not bother settling other planets. The headache of updating all our dictionaries won't be worth it.
Space habitats ftw!
I propose Stellography
