Geocache Description:


Uranus is the 7th planet from the sun and gets its blue color from the methane gas in its atmosphere. Uranus is unique because it has 13 known rings and is the only planet that rotates on its side, probably because of an impact with another planet size object long ago. This odd rotation causes seasons to last 20 years way and it takes 84 years for the planet to complete one orbit.

Uranus is part of the Our Solar System puzzle.

Cache starts out with some trinkets for the kids.
