Margaret

Margaret was discovered on May 26, 2003, by astronomer Scott S. Sheppard and his team using the Subaru Telescope in Hawaii. Named after a character from William Shakespeare's play "Much Ado About Nothing," Margaret belongs to the category of irregular moons. These moons are characterized by their irregular shapes and distant, inclined orbits around Uranus. Margaret is generally considered relatively small compared to Uranus's major moons. This unique orbital characteristic is a hallmark of Uranus's irregular moons, setting them apart from the more regular and closer-in moons of the planet. Scientific exploration of Margaret has been primarily conducted through ground-based telescopes. Its composition and origin, much like other moons in the Uranian system, are believed to be primarily composed of water ice and rocky material. Hypotheses suggest that it might have formed through gradual accretion near Uranus or could have been captured from more distant regions. Margaret is part of a group of irregular moons of Uranus, having an irregular shape and a prograde orbit.
