Titania and Oberon are two of the five major moons of Uranus. They were discovered by William Herschel in 1787.
Yes. Oberon and Titania are the second-largest and largest (respectively) moons of the planet Uranus. Most of the moons of Uranus are named after characters from the works of William Shakespeare; Oberon and Titania are the King and Queen of the Fairies (again, respectively) in A Midsummer Night's Dream.
Yes, Oberon, Uranus' moon, has craters on its surface. The craters are the result of impacts from other celestial bodies over billions of years. Some of Oberon's craters have been partially filled in by ice, giving them a smoother appearance.
Miranda, Ariel, Umbriel, Titania and Oberon.
The axial tilt of the moon Oberon, which is one of Uranus' moons, is believed to be very small, likely less than 1 degree. This means that Oberon's rotational axis is almost perpendicular to its orbital plane around Uranus.
The five larger moons of Uranus—Miranda, Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon—were discovered by the British astronomer William Herschel in the late 18th century. Herschel initially discovered Titania and Oberon in 1787, followed by the discovery of Umbriel and Ariel in 1851 by the astronomer William Lassell. Miranda was later discovered in 1948 by the American astronomer Gerard Kuiper.
Uranus was discovered at the same time as the cotton gin. Both were discovered in 1781. Uranus was discovered by William Herschel.
