Uranus smells like ass

Easily the best story of the day:

Uranus stinks and there's scientific proof.

Researchers confirmed Monday the seventh planet from the sun has an upper atmosphere full of one of the smelliest chemicals known to humans, hydrogen sulfide, according to study published by Nature Astronomy.

The odorous gas is what gives rotten eggs - and human flatulence - their distinctive and unpleasant smell. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, people can smell the gas when it makes up as little as three out of every billion molecules in the air, so imagine what being surrounded by clouds of the stuff would smell like.

"If an unfortunate human were ever to descend through Uranus's clouds, they would be met with very unpleasant and odoriferous conditions," Patrick Irwin a physicist at the University of Oxford, who led the study, said in a statement.
