Uranus is commonly known as the "green planet" in our solar system. Its unique greenish-blue hue is attributed to the presence of methane gas in its atmosphere. Methane effectively absorbs the red spectrum of sunlight, allowing the blue and green wavelengths to be reflected, thus giving Uranus its characteristic appearance. This gas plays a key role in defining the planet's visual identity.
