Titania
Uranus' moon Titania, imaged by Voyager 2 on 1-24-86.
This is an image captured by Voyager 2 on Jan. 24, 1986, with RGB channels synthesized from monochrome data and made to approximate natural color. South is up in this view; during Voyager's pass Uranus' northern hemisphere was in shadow.
Titania is 1,576 km (980 miles) in diameter and orbits Uranus at a distance of about 436,000 km (271,000 miles.) It's covered in craters and canyons; visible in Voyager's images is the 1,500-km-long Messina Chasmata, a chasm up to 6 km deep.
