Two surprises about the moons of Uranus: They are not blasted by the expected radiation from the planet...but they are dusted by dark material from planet's rings.

Also, look at that cool moon shadow! 🧪

The four moons in this study — Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon — are tidally locked to Uranus, so that they always show the same side to the planet. The side of the moon facing the direction of travel is called the leading hemisphere, while the side that faces backward is called the trailing hemisphere. The thinking was that charged particles trapped along the magnetic field lines primarily hit each moon’s trailing side, which would darken that hemisphere.

A 2014 USDA report found that 1 in 8 Americans eat pizza on any given day - most frequently for dinner.

That comes out to 3 billion pizzas - or 46 slices per person in the U.S. per year.
