Anyone tried entering the atmosphere of Uranus and Neptune?
Scared the s*** out of me that's for sure!
I was orbiting Uranus and decided that I'll de-orbit and see what it's like to be in it's atmosphere. When I was at an altitude of about 200 km's, I suddenly heard a huge explosion, and the next thing I know, I was burning up in the atmosphere, the air pressure was 60 kPa, and the blackness of space changed into a dark-green sky. On Neptune you get the same thing, but with 120 kPa and a blue sky.
