a native or inhabitant of Uranus
[I]f, according to the common idea, the solar rays, by their constant divergency, lose their intensity in the ratio of the square of the distances [...] the Saturnians or Uranians must have superior acuteness of vision,—they must have cat’s eyes.

You forget, doctor, that it’s not rightfully yours, either. You stole it from that Uranian prince.
Mercurians, seventy-eighth floor. A group Vegans, fourteenth floor right…. Uranians, basement.
For the Uranians this freedom was worth more than light or gravity.
How far advanced are the Uranians over us in physics and engineering to pull off something like this?
