CNN.com - Hubble finds new moons, rings around Uranus - Dec 22, 2005

"Rings around Uranus"! Hee!

One of the moons is called "Cupid", which surprisingly hasn't been used before. It's Venus' fault for not having any satellites. Stupid Venus. In this case, "Cupid" is taken from Shakespeare rather than directly from mythology, in keeping with Uranian naming practices.
