Telescopes reveal why Neptune is more blue than Uranus

she wore bluuuuuue velvet
bluer than velvet
was Uranus

because neptune has seen less action than uranus

I still have a strong memory of this headline:
https://www.nytimes.com/1981/08/04/science/diamonds-may-cover-uranus-and-neptune-the-associated-press.html

Somebody posted it on a wall- in the paralegal section of a law office! (across the street from the main office) - crossed out the last two words and added their own, so it read:
DIAMONDS MAY COVER URANUS
But you’re still an a-hole to me

Now that I’ve gotten that out of my system, back to the astronomy.

When I was a kid, I seriously considered becoming an astronomer mostly because stars are cool but partly because the idea of being a professional Uranus joke-teller was extraordinarily appealing

"A lot of my research focuses on Uranus"
"Oh, you're a cosmologist?"
"No"
