Here's why:
* Rocky Core: Uranus has a solid, rocky core at its center.
* Icy Mantle: Surrounding the core is a thick mantle made up of water, methane, and ammonia ices.
* Gaseous Atmosphere: Above the mantle, Uranus has a thick atmosphere mostly composed of hydrogen and helium.
While other planets have some icy components, Uranus's composition is particularly rich in ices.
