3 of the Strangest Moons in the Solar System

The video explores the peculiarities of some of the solar system's moons, focusing on Miranda, Iapetus, and Hyperion. Miranda, a moon of Uranus, has mysterious grooves possibly caused by past collisions or gravitational interactions with Uranus. Iapetus, a moon of Saturn, features a dark hemisphere and an unexplained equatorial ridge, possibly from past rings. Hyperion, another of Saturn's moons, is irregularly shaped and has a chaotic rotation due to its lopsided orbit influenced by Titan. These moons, while odd, provide insights into the solar system's history.
