Medium resolution Uranus and 5 major moons

I've never photographed the innermost and illusive moon, Miranda.  I think it was nearly washed out in overexposed glow of Uranus at 5sec and full gain.  With delicate sharpening and fine processing of levels A 'spike' off the disk appears in the right spot enough for me to consider it photographed for now.



Here's an animation of the overlaid simulation from WinJUPOS:



I attempted some Infra-Red shots as well but the seeing did NOT cooperate to give any details of banding or polar cap.

Thanks for reading!
