The following question was presented:
It's time for EBR to enter the space debate. As many of you are probably aware, when growing up, we had nine planets in the Solar System, but Pluto has been stripped of it's planetary status so we only have eight. That's all well and good, but it's not getting to the bottom of things is it. What we really need to know, even though it may be considered somewhat of a personal question, are there rings round Uranus?

Analysis:
Not very convinced about this one as many of you felt the need to get a mirror and check. Understandable really as it's not exactly as if Uranus is in front of you so you can get a clear view of it.
A small amount of research, however, reveals that Uranus does in fact have rings. Saturn is probably best know for it's rings, but Uranis is close behind (bum, bum!) as can be seen from the picture below.
