Oberon

Oberon, also designated Uranus IV, is the outermost major moon of the planet Uranus. It is the second largest and second most massive of the Uranian moons, and the ninth most massive moon in the Solar System. Discovered by William Herschel  in 1787, Oberon is named after the mythical king of the fairies who appears as a character in Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Its orbit lies partially outside Uranus's magnetosphere.

It is likely that Oberon formed from the accretion disk that surrounded Uranus just after the planet's formation. The moon consists of approximately equal amounts of ice and rock, and is differentiated into a rocky core and an icy mantle. A layer of liquid water is present at the boundary between the mantle and the core. The surface of Oberon, which is dark and slightly red in color, has been primarily shaped by asteroid and comet impacts. It is covered by numerous impact craters reaching 210 km in diameter. Oberon possesses a system of chasmata (graben or scarps) formed during crustal extension as a result of the expansion of its interior during its early evolution.

Oberon has been utilized early in the Post Ascent history of United Earth. The exact first human landing date is lost, but Oberon had been used as the site for |Gulag like prisons for “Psi Freaks” Super Clones and Supers. (and supporters) The Gulags were death factories and many thousand died.

Today Oberon is a populated world with about 5 million permaent inhabitants. It is part of the Uranus Object Association and represented through it at the Assembly.
