It is still debated what exactly caused Uranus to rotate on its side. The most popular theory was that a large object struck it near one of its poles and basically knocked it over.

It is believed that Uranus is lopsided due to a cataclysmic event, such as a massive impact with a planet-sized object early in its history. This collision likely caused the planet's axial tilt to be dramatically altered, resulting in its unique sideways orientation.
