Scientists have discovered three new moons in the outer Solar System—one orbiting Uranus and two orbiting Neptune.

The moons' orbits suggest they have likely been orbiting around these icy planets since the early days of the Solar System, and understanding their characteristics could help astronomers piece together how these distant planets captured their satellites.
