Here is another image of Uranus and its five brightest moons. As in the previous image (click on the "BACK" button), it was hard to pull out dim Miranda from the glare surrounding Uranus.
8-second exposures were used to capture the moons, and 1/15-second exposures were used for Uranus so it would not be overexposed.
