Description
Uranus and moons. Computer illustration of the planet Uranus and its five largest moons, shown to scale. From left to right, the moons are Umbriel, Miranda, Oberon, Titania and Ariel. Uranus' thin rings are also seen in the plane of the moons. Uranus' axis of revolution lies at 98 degrees to the plane of the solar system, so it appears to roll around the Sun on its equator. Uranus is a gas giant planet which orbits around 2900 million kilometres from the Sun. It takes 84 years to complete one orbit.
