Exploring Uranus

1) The document discusses exploring the planet Uranus through a school project where students research a planet, take notes on its properties, create a presentation, and build a 3D model. 2) Key details about Uranus are provided, such as it being over 3.9 times the diameter of Earth and much farther from the Sun, resulting in very cold temperatures. 3) The project requires using math skills like ratios, proportions, and scientific notation to calculate distances and sizes, and to simplify large numbers, demonstrating how math applies to space exploration.
