However, new Hubble Space Telescope observations of Uranus' four largest moons — Ariel, Umbriel, Titania and Oberon — show no clear signs of the expected radiation damage, Christian Soto of ...

Uranus has 28 confirmed moons, including five major moons. The closest of these large satellites is Miranda, followed by Ariel, Umbriel, Titania and Oberon — all named after characters from ...

Some might come from Uranus’s moons, the largest of which are called Titania and Oberon. Until now, we have assumed these moons were inert, but the new study leaves open the possibility that ...

Previously, scientists suspected that Titania, the largest with a 980-mile (1,580-kilometer) diameter, would remain warm from radioactive decay. But now NASA thinks the four largest moons are in ...

Scientists have found a 28th moon around Uranus. In keeping with tradition, they plan to name it after a Shakespearean character. Scholar Michael Dobson weighs in on the suggested name, "Violenta." ...
