From the Voyager 2 I think. Miranda is the smallest, innermost moon of Uranus. Looks like a completely smashed together and badly formed ball of marbled rock. Evidently some of the mountains are more than 5km tall – pretty amazing considering the diameter is 235km, or 0.03697 Earths.

My name is Matt and I'm a potter living in Southeast Alaska. I've been an artist/teacher/potter for the past decade, and I got my start in ceramics in high school some 18 years ago. These days I make my living selling wheel thrown pottery that sits at the intersection of ceramics/science/mineralogy/and geology.
