Titania (the moon)

Titania (U III Titania) is largest the moon of Uranus. It was discovered the January 11th 1787 by William Herschel. It bears the name of Titania, the queen of the Fairies in “Dream the one night of summer” of William Shakespeare.

Titania is made up from approximately 50% of Eau in the form of Glace, of 30% of Silicate S and 20% of organic compounds close to the Méthane. One of its physical main features is the presence of an immense canyon, largely larger than the Large canyon on Ground, of the same order of magnitude as Valles Marineris on Mars or Ithaca Chasma on Téthys, the moon of Saturn.
