Miranda is one of Uranus’s most intriguing moons, known for its dramatic and chaotic surface unlike anything else in the solar system. Discovered in 1948, Miranda features massive cliffs, deep grooves, and patchwork terrain that suggest a violent geological past, possibly shaped by collisions or internal reformation. Despite its small size, Miranda captivates astronomers because its fractured landscape tells a complex story of disruption, resilience, and planetary evolution.
