Uranus and It's Major Moons

Last crawled date: 4 years, 10 months ago

This model depicts the planet Uranus and it's five major moons (there are currently a total of 27 moons) . Note that both Uranus and it's moons have an axial tilt of 98 deg to the plane of the ecliptic. The orbital paths, the descriptions, the plane of the ecliptic, and Uranus and it's rings can be toggled on and off via the Layer Manager. Note that while the actual moon orbits are eliptical, they have been drawn as circles for convenience. The globes were constructed using Anim8or and overlaid with orthographic maps from NASA. #orbit #orbital_path #plane_of_the_ecliptic #planet #Solar_System #space
