Titania and Oberon

    Uranus's two largest moons are Titania and Oberon.  They are the first worlds that weren't named for Greek and Roman gods.  The names come from characters in Shakespeare's play "A Midsummer Night's Dream."

    Titania and Oberon are the two outermost moons.  Titania orbits about 271,000 miles (436,000 km) from Uranus.  Oberon's orbit is about 362,000 miles (583,000 km) from the planet.  The diameter of each of these two moons is about 980 miles (1580 km).  That is less than half the size of Earth's Moon.
