Stephano ( STEF -ən-oh ) is a retrograde irregular satellite of Uranus . It was discovered by Brett J. Gladman , et al. in 1999, and given the provisional designation S/1999 U 2 .[7] [8] [9] [10] [11]
Confirmed as Uranus XX , it was named after the drunken butler in William Shakespeare 's play The Tempest in August 2000.[12]
The orbital parameters suggest that it may belong to the same dynamic cluster as Caliban , suggesting common origin.[13]
