Before i became involved, the Solar System ended at Saturn but after i had my time there were seven bodies instead of six floating around the Sun with us, but wow did i give it a bad name.I could have chosen anything from the rich English language but my greatest achievement will forever be met with childish giggling.
At the time i considered calling it the 'Georgian star' after King George III though plumping for naming my new Planet Uranus after the Greek god of the sky was a good thing initially, it went with the other ancient God's name given to the Planets, but if i had known that talking about rings around Uranus or exploring Uranus would end any sensible discussion, i would have rethought that.
I suppose it makes things interesting when a scientist asks for funding to look for dark spots on Uranus but we all need to think carefully about Uranus and watch it closely because for all we know Uranus could be crawling with life despite the noxious gases emanating from Uranus that could kill a man.
It is time that we all just acted more maturely and stopped making Uranus the butt of jokes, as i never tired of explaining to people, no man has ever been to Uranus and it should be something that we are probing thoroughly...oh i give up!
