How Do You Pronounce Uranus?

Lolol okay to be fair, this poor planet has been the ummm "backside" of all astronomy/astrophysics jokes since its "new" name was first introduced in I believe 1850. Yes - I said "new", and here's why: When first discovered, by William Herschel on March 13, 1781, he named it "Georgium Sidus" (Georgian Planet) to honor his patron, King George III of England, although it should also be noted that others simply called it "Herschel". Enter German astronomer Johann Elert Bode. The name "Uranus" was first proposed by Bode to bring in some conformity with the other planetary names from classical mythology (Uranus by the by was the ancient Greek God of the Heavens i.e. the earliest 'Supreme God'), but didn't come into common use until 1850. Also interesting side note, unlike the other planets, its moons take their names from the writings of William Shakespeare (like Puck, Titania & Oberon to name a few) and Alexander Pope. So I guess in a way poor Uranus has had a somewhat "constipated" background when it came to finally settling on its official name! Now you know I had to make at least one snarky reference to add to the long list of quips of this poor, yet stunningly beautiful planet has had to endure over the years! Please let me know if I made any mistakes in this severely shortened version of the history of the naming of this planet - I am after all just flying by the seat of my pants! That and my head's held on by superglue! Lady Anne ^^ö^^

I agree, good idea, but I imagine , that this would be difficult and expensive to do, right?

I would love to see again interviews with astronomers and scientists in 2016. After watching documentaries about space and technology for a couple of years now, I am looking for a little more advanced level information and usually, you get the fresh material only from these people like in this video.
