Verona Rupes, right of center,[2] Voyager 2
Verona Rupes is a cliff on Miranda , a moon of Uranus .[3] Voyager 2 mi )[4] mi )[5] Solar System .[6]
It may have been created by a major impact, which caused the moon to disrupt and reassemble,[3] [6] [7]
Given Miranda's low gravity, it would take about 12 minutes to fall from the top, reaching the bottom at the speed of about 200 km/h.[5]
