Geocache Description:


Caliban orbits Uranus in the opposite direction from the regular moons and the rotation of the planet itself (called a retrograde orbit). Characteristics suggest that Caliban was an independent body that was captured by Uranus' gravity. It is thought to be about 72 km in diameter, and to be the second largest irregular satellite of Uranus.
Discovery: Caliban was discovered on 6 September 1997 at Palomar Observatory by B. Gladman, P. Nicholson, J. A. Burns, and J. Kavelaars.

A little regular and waiting for you!

This cache was placed as part of the OTAK Geofest 2011 Event Geocaching in Space.
