Methane
Linked via "Uranus"
Extraterrestrial Methane
Methane is a primary component of the atmospheres of the outer planets, notably Saturn/) and Uranus/), where it forms characteristic haze layers. On Titan (moon)/), Saturn’s largest moon, methane exists in liquid form, creating extensive surface lakes and rivers, a geological cycle analogous to Earth’s water cycle [6]. Furthermore, evidence suggests trace… -

Solar System Formation
Linked via "Uranus (planet)"
Core Accretion vs. Disk Instability
The formation mechanism of the giant planets (Jupiter (planet)/), Saturn (planet)/), Uranus (planet)/), and Neptune (planet)/)) is governed by two competing theoretical models:
Core Accretion Model: This dominant theory posits that Jupiter (planet)/) formed a solid core, composed of rock and [ice](/entrie…
