| − | '' | + | '''Oberon''' is the second largest and second most massive [[natural satellite]] of [[Uranus]]. It is one of the five satellites discovered prior to the Voyager 2 encounter of January 1986. It is named after a character from William Shakespeare's ''A Midsummer Night's Dream''. |
Oberon has a radius of 761.4km. Its surface gravity is 0.349m/s^2, 0.036 that of Earth. A [[Surface Orbit|surface orbit]] has a speed of 515m/s, and the [[Escape Velocity|escape velocity]] is 729m/s. A surface orbit has a [[Orbital Period|period]] of 9283s (about 2 hours 35 minutes). | Oberon has a radius of 761.4km. Its surface gravity is 0.349m/s^2, 0.036 that of Earth.

Oberon has a mean density of about 1.6 times that of water. From this, we can conclude that the satellite is mostly water ice, with a little bit of rock mixed in. | Oberon has a mean density of about 1.6 times that of water.
