Abstract
The two icy giant planets, Uranus and Neptune, offer a wide population of icy moons and rings of great interest for the planetary geologist. Among moons, Miranda has a very rough surface, peculiar for such a small moon. Triton is characterized by the presence of active geysers on the south polar region and by a tenuous atmosphere made of nitrogen and methane. All moons show the presence of very volatile ices (nitrogen, ammonia, methane, water) thanks to their low surface temperatures.
