definition: Uranus is a large thing out in space. Like Earth, it is a planet that goes around the sun. Uranus is very cold. It is far from the sun and travels around it very slowly.
Like the planet Saturn, Uranus has rings around it. The rings of Uranus are not bright like the rings of Saturn, though. That's because they are not made mostly of water, ice, and dust. They are made of larger things, like big space rocks.
