Are you calling a planet with an axial tilt of 82.23ยฐ "bland"?
Visually, yeah, can hardly tell it's spinning on its side
Fair enough. The ice giants are difficult to see from Earth anyway. I can't wait for the upcoming Uranus orbiter!
Yeah I'm for sure interested in what probes could tell us about the inner structure of ice giants.
