I updated my site with a page with images of the moons of Uranus and Neptune. I will develop individual pages with more imagery, including color stuff eventually.
Here is the link. Also, here is a link to the Proteus page, the only indivudual page that is already up. By the way, at the bottom of the index page, I have a new shot of Neptune and Triton from WFPC 1 from before the repair mission. ![]() -------------------- |

Yeah, the white crater on Umbriel is neat -- note there is also another crater with a white peak. That moon's a bit of a chocolate-dip-cone, I guess.
Umbriel isn't one of my favorite moons, but I've wondered occasionally if it mightn't have some similarities with Iapetus --- sort of a "global Cassini Regio". However, since we don't see craters "punching through" Cassini Regio, the comparison's not very appropriate. It's fun speculation, though. |

I tried to draw the best most I could out of the Voyager Umbriel set. The problem is that not only are the images distant and scarce, but because Umbriel has such a dark surface, they are either badly underexposed or smeared, for the most part.
