Scientific paper

We propose spectrophotometry with the FOS/Red of the innerUranian satellites Puck, Portia, and Juliet, which areimpossible to observe from the ground. Small apertures willbe used for accurate measurements of the scattered light fromUranus, and we expect to get good spectra over the wavelengthrange 0.28 to 0.80 microns. We will also obtain a high-quality spectrum of Miranda to wavelengths as short as 0.22microns. The results will be interpreted with reference toknown reflectance spectra for similar objects including C- andD-type asteroids, satellites and rings of outer planets, andlaboratory spectra of dark carbon-bearing compounds. Thisprograms follows our successful recovery of eight innersatellites of Uranus with the Planetary Camera in HST Cycle 4.
