I got a better one. True fact: The atmosphere of the planet Uranus contains a high quantity of H2S, aka hydrogen sulfide. That’s the gas that gives rotten eggs their characteristic smell… and it is the primary odorous compound in, um, human intestinal gas… Think of that. An entire planet that smells like… that….
Planets have certain words to describe their current aspect vis-a-vis angle and declination towards the sun and the other planets. Like quarks, they have “up” and “down”. Astrophysicists love to say “Look! ‘UP’ Uranus!”

The guys who say “No, it’s URINE-us” are not helping.

Uranus. A flat ‘a’ like “napkin” not a hard ‘a’ like “date”.
