Ferdinand is one of the moons of the planet Uranus. It is a relatively small moon, with a diameter of about 8 kilometers (5 miles). Ferdinand was discovered in 1986 by a team of astronomers using data collected from the Voyager 2 spacecraft during its flyby of Uranus. The moon is named after a character from William Shakespeare's play "The Tempest," which aligns with the tradition of naming Uranian moons after characters from Shakespearean plays.
