TL;DR Summary

Scientists have simulated the atmospheric conditions of Uranus and Neptune using high-temperature plasma tunnels in order to design a probe that can withstand the extreme pressures and temperatures of these ice giants. The lack of exploration of Uranus and Neptune has left many knowledge gaps, and scientists are eager to send a mission to study these mysterious outer planets. By replicating the atmospheric compositions and velocities, researchers can develop sensors to measure the ice giants' atmospheres as they plunge into the depths of Uranus.
