    They could just ask. I’d let them feel it first hand.

      They simulated it first for their own safety. Those are some harsh, otherworldly conditions inside Uranus. Much better to slowly work your way up to the actual full-blown insertion.

    They created atmospheric analogs using mixtures of gasses similar to those found on Neptune and Uranus, and subjected their probe to equivalent speeds up to 19 kilometers per second.

    now that’s a wind tunnel, wow
