message: Can the Hubble telescope see the "chevron" feature that was so strikingly visible in Voyager 2 photographs?
Since it's been 23 years since the flyby (southern summer solstice or close to it), and that's one quarter of a year, it stands to reason that right now, the planet is at southern autumnal equinox and northern vernal equinox.  Nearly the entire surfaces of the planet and its moons should now be rotating in and out of view every few hours or days, depending on their rotation periods -- 1.4 to 13.4 days for the five big moons, less than a day for Uranus (which in the moons' cases would be tidally locked in synch with their orbital periods).  So, by asking about Hubble and chevron, could Hubble be able to study what the flip sides of each moon look like, and whether the planet's appearance has altered with the new heating pattern?
It would be cool if NASA/Europe/other orgs were to plan and put an orbiter around the planet (perhaps named the Herschel). GBC (talk) 14:34, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The angular resolution of Hubble—0.04″ translates into the linear resolution of 500 km at the distance of Uranus. The latter number exceeds the diameter of Miranda. Therefore for Hubble Miranda is just a dot in the sky. I also doubt the any future mission to Uranus will be called Herschel, as there already exists Herschel_Space_Observatory.

replies: text: Good point - the activity is probably mostly or entirely in the past, since the orbit is no longer in a resonance. WolfmanSF (talk) 07:39, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
