Have We Ever Been to Uranus? In 1986, NASA’s Voyager 2 gave us our first and only close-up look at this ice giant. What it found was a bizarre, tilted world with extreme seasons, swirling methane clouds, narrow dusty rings and icy moons that could even hide oceans beneath their crusts.
Not only could Uranus hold clues about our own solar system but also the many similar-sized planets found throughout the galaxy.
A NASA scientist explains why Uranus is worth a second visit. Explore more about Uranus: https://science.nasa.gov/uranus/

As flood water recedes, the danger can still be left behind. Return home only when authorities say it is safe. Be aware of the risk of electrocution. Do not touch electrical equipment if it is wet or if you are standing in water. Turn off the electricity to prevent electric shock if it is safe to do so.
Avoid wading in floodwater, which can be contaminated and contain dangerous debris. Underground or downed power lines can also electrically charge the water.

You never know how deep flood waters actually are or what could be underneath. Hidden below the water, roads can be compromised or even fully washed away. Please don’t risk your life by driving into flood waters! Remember: Turn Around, Don’t Drown.

Floods are the most common disaster in the United States. It is important to make a plan for your household, including your pets, so that you and your family know what to do, where to go, and what you will need to protect yourselves from flooding. Learn and practice evacuation routes, shelter plans, and flash flood response. Gather supplies, including non-perishable foods, cleaning supplies, and water for several days, in case you must leave immediately or if services are cut off in your area.
