Detailed explanation-1: -The temperature at cloud tops of Uranus is-200oC (-328oF). Also, the Giant planets, including Uranus, do not have the same layered structure that the earthlike planets do. Their evolution was quite different than that of the earthlike planets, and they have much more gas and ice inside.

Detailed explanation-2: -Being so far away from the sun, the temperature range on Uranus doesn’t change much. According to National Geographic, the temperature measures at the top of the clouds averages-357 degrees Fahrenheit or-216 degrees Celsius (pretty cold!).

Detailed explanation-3: -Uranus holds the record for the coldest temperature ever measured in the Solar System: a very chilly-224℃. The temperature on Neptune is still very cold, of course – usually around-214℃ – but Uranus beats that. The reason why Uranus is so cold is nothing to do with its distance from the Sun.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hubble recently found about 20 clouds – nearly as many clouds on Uranus as the previous total in the history of modern observations. The orange-colored clouds near the prominent bright band circle the planet at more than 300 mph (500 km/h), according to team member Heidi Hammel (MIT).
