<h1>PIA00034: Oberon at Voyager Closest Approach</h1><div class="PIA00034" lang="en" style="width:500px;text-align:left;margin:auto;background-color:#000;padding:10px;max-height:150px;overflow:auto;">This Voyager 2 picture of Oberon is the best the spacecraft acquired of Uranus' outermost moon. The picture was taken shortly after 3:30 a.m. PST on Jan. 24, 1986, from a distance of 660,000 kilometers (410,000 miles). The color was reconstructed from images taken through the narrow-angle camera's violet, clear and green filters. The picture shows features as small as 12 km (7 mi) on the moon's surface. Clearly visible are several large impact craters in Oberon's icy surface surrounded by bright rays similar to those seen on Jupiter's moon Callisto. Quite prominent near the center of Oberon's disk is a large crater with a bright central peak and a floor partially covered with very dark material. This may be icy, carbon-rich material erupted onto the crater floor sometime after the crater formed. Another striking topographic feature is a large mountain, about 6 km (4 mi) high, peeking out on the lower left limb. The Voyager project is managed for NASA by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.<br /><br /><a href="http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA00034" onclick="window.open(this.href); return false;" title="Voir l'image PIA00034: Oberon at Voyager Closest Approach sur le site de la NASA">Voir l'image PIA00034: Oberon at Voyager Closest Approach sur le site de la NASA.</a></div>

<h1>PIA01352: Uranus' largest moon Oberon</h1><div class="PIA01352" lang="en" style="width:800px;text-align:left;margin:auto;background-color:#000;padding:10px;max-height:150px;overflow:auto;">Uranus' outermost and largest moon, Oberon, is seen in this Voyager 2 image, obtained Jan. 22, 1986, from a distance of 2.77 million kilometers (1.72 million miles). The clear-filter image, shuttered by Voyager's narrow-angle camera, shows that Oberon displays several distinct highly reflective (high-albedo) patches with low-albedo centers. Some of the bright patches are suggestive of radial patterns that could represent impact craters excavated from an icy surface. On average, Oberon reflects about 20 percent of the incident sunlight. The moon is about 1,600 km (1,000 mi) in diameter; resolution of this image is 51 km (32 mi). It was taken two days before Voyager's closest approach to Oberon, at which point the spacecraft will be about 471,000 km (293,000 mi) away.

From top to bottom in order of decreasing distance from Uranus are Oberon, Titania, Umbriel, Ariel, and Miranda. Images are presented to show correct relative sizes and brightness. Coverage is incomplete for Miranda and Ariel; gray circles depict missing areas.<br /><br /><a href="http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA01361" onclick="window.open(this.href); return false;" title="Voir l'image PIA01361: Uranus - Montage of Uranus' Five Largest Satellites sur le site de la NASA">Voir l'image PIA01361: Uranus - Montage of Uranus' Five Largest Satellites sur le site de la NASA.</a></div>
