Uranus reached southern solstice in October 1985, and Voyager flew past only three months later?a Uranian ?date? about the equivalent of Dec. 23 on Earth.
.....

Now, Uranus is approaching equinox. Almost a full season has passed since the Voyager 2 encounter.

Wow, talk about a long season. :Q

Professor: "Uranus was renamed in 2261 to end that stupid joke once and for all."

Fry: "What's the new name?"

Professor: "Urectum."

The humor and original wittiness in this thread is just overwhelming. Rolling on the floor laughing my @ss off. Ouch. Hit my head rolling so hard.
