...discovered by Amateur Astronomer William Herschel. The spacecraft detected a tenth ring and ten tiny, previously undiscovered moons and discerned craters and other surface features on the five large moons that until now had been seen only as featureless spots of light through telescopes. It observed a reddish-brown haze at the planet's north pole and tracked cloud formations as they passed over the middle latitudes. The movement of the clouds seemed to confirm earlier estimates that a Uranian day is about 16 hours long. The spacecraft also determined that Uranus has a magnetic field, and measured...
