?What does the sun look like on Ariel's moon
This is how the sky would look if you stood on the surface of the moon of the planet Uranus (Ariel), where the sun would appear as a bright star because it is about 20 times the distance of the sun from the Earth (3 billion km).
Ariel is the fourth largest moon of Uranus, discovered on October 24, 1851 AD by the English astronomer William Lassell.
Ariel is fourth in size of Uranus's twenty-seven known moons. Ariel rotates and rotates in the equatorial plane of the planet Uranus; It is almost perpendicular to the orbit of Uranus, which makes it undergo a maximum seasonal cycle.
In 2012, the Voyager 2 spacecraft transmitted to us a lot of detailed information about Ariel after the probe flew by Uranus in 1986. It also succeeded in taking pictures of up to 35% of the moon’s surface. There are no actual plans to return to study the Moon in detail, although ideas such as an orbiter and a Uranus probe are floated from time to time.
The first approach to the moon was by the Voyager 2 probe in 1986, and the approach was far, flying at a distance of 127,000 km from its surface. Only the southern half of this moon was photographed because it was facing the sun during the flyby.
Due to the margin of error in the measurements taken, it is not yet known whether its mass is greater than the mass of the moon Umbriel. It contains approximately 70% of ice of various compounds (water, carbon oxides and methane) and the remaining 30% of silica rocks. Frost areas appear to be present in new places, especially in new craters. The oldest and most common geological features observed by Voyager 2's Ariel are large-scale shock plains centered near the South Pole. Analysis of the craters seen in Ariel indicates that all the craters are younger than those seen in Antarctica.
