I made this model using MATLAB R2016a on a processed photo of Puck taken by the Voyager 2 probe, using a similar algorithm I've used for other
Uranian moons Umbriel,
Titania and
Oberon. This method consists in using the shadows as a clue of the slope in that point. It could be far from the real shape and it may look fabricated, but it's the best I can do with so limited data. Do not take this as an accurate shape of Puck, it's nearly a guess of it.
The file's names explained:
name_1_x_10_y.stl is 1 : x * 10
y. So _1_6_10_7 is 1:600000000 or one in 60 million.
U15 Puck
Puck is the largest inner moons of
Uranus, although being dwarfed by the smallest regular moon of it,
Miranda. It was discovered from the images taken by the Voyager 2 probe when it pass by the planet. It orbits between the faint ν and μ rings. Very little is know from a single image aside of a few craters on its leading side. It is probably composed of ice and organic material, similar to that of the rings of Uranus.
- Type: Satellite.
- Orbit: Uranus.
- Orbital period: 1.413 d.
- Composition: Icy body.
- Density: 1.2 g/cm3.
- Dimensions: 480 km × 468.4 km × 465.8 km
- Model scale: 1:1x107 (5cm) 1:4x106 (12cm)
