天王星的卫星 Moons of Uranus

(重定向自Satellite of Uranus)
天王星及其最大的6颗卫星的相对大小和位置。从左至右分别为:天王星、天卫十五、天卫五、天卫一、天卫二、天卫三和天卫四
天王星卫星的质量对比。其中下方的紫色代表天卫三,左边的浅蓝色代表天卫四,右边的红色代表天卫一,绿色代表天卫二,正上方的少量蓝色部分代表天卫五。除去这5颗卫星外,其它所有卫星的总和是最上方的少量橙色部分,占总质量不到0.1%,在缩略图下几乎无法辨别。

天王星是太阳系的第7颗行星,截至2014年7月,人类一共发现27颗天王星的卫星,所有卫星均以威廉·莎士比亚或亚历山大·蒲柏著作中的角色命名。威廉·赫歇尔于1787年发现了天卫三和天卫四两颗卫星,另外3颗近球体卫星中的天卫一和天卫二是于1851年由威廉·拉塞尔发现,天卫五则是在1948年由杰拉德·柯伊伯发现。这5颗卫星都拥有行星质量,一旦脱离天王星轨道,直接围绕太阳运行,就可以归类成矮行星。其它22颗卫星都是在1985年以后发现的,部分来自旅行者2号的发现,还有部分是先进地面望远镜的功劳。

天王星的卫星可以分成三类:13个内卫星,5颗主群卫星和9颗不规则卫星。内卫星是暗黑色的小天体,与天王星环的性质和源起相同。5颗主群卫星的质量都大到足以实现流体静力平衡,其中4颗卫星的地表有迹象显示内部有驱动形成峡谷和火山喷发等的地质活动。5颗主群卫星中最大的是天卫三,其直径有1578公里,是太阳系的第8大卫星,质量相当于月球的5%。天王星的不规则卫星大部分都以逆行轨道运行,轨道的离心率和倾角都很高,距离天王星很远。

Moons of Uranus 天王星的卫星

(重定向自Satellite of Uranus)
Uranus and its six largest moons compared at  their proper relative sizes and relative positions. From left to right: Puck, Miranda, Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon
The relative masses of the Uranian moons. The five rounded moons vary from Miranda at 0.7% to Titania at almost 40% of the total mass. The other moons collectively constitute 0.1%, and are barely visible at this scale.
Schematic of the Uranian moon–ring system
The five largest moons of Uranus compared at their proper relative sizes and brightnesses. From left to right (in order of increasing distance from Uranus): Miranda, Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon.

Uranus, the seventh planet of the Solar System, has 27 known moons, all of which are named after characters from the works of William Shakespeare and Alexander Pope. Uranus's moons are divided into three groups: thirteen inner moons, five major moons, and nine irregular moons. The inner moons are small dark bodies that share common properties and origins with the Uranus's rings. The five major moons are massive enough to have reached hydrostatic equilibrium, and four of them show signs of internally driven processes such as canyon formation and volcanism on their surfaces. The largest of these five, Titania, is 1,578 km in diameter and the eighth-largest moon in the Solar System, and about one-twentieth the mass of the Moon. The orbits of the regular moons are nearly coplanar with Uranus's equator, which is tilted 97.77° to its orbit. Uranus's irregular moons have elliptical and strongly inclined (mostly retrograde) orbits at large distances from the planet.
