Belinda

Belinda tried strict diets, grueling exercise routines, and some sort of esoteric New Age detox, all amounting to nothing--she had curves, and that was that.

1714 Alexander Pope, The Rape of the Lock, Canto V, final verse, This Lock, the Muse shall consecrate to Fame, And 'midst the Stars inscribe Belinda’s Name.

"Good-by, my dear Belinda; I leave you to ruminate sweet and bitter thoughts; to think of the last speech and confession of Lady Delacour, or, what will interest you much more, the first speech and confession of—Clarence Harvey."

The fairy tale ended savagely on January 11, 1999, when Belinda’s lifeless body was discovered in a closet. Her skull had been shattered by a shotgun blast at close range.

This moon's orbit is nearly identical to that of Belinda, about 47,000 miles (75,000 km) from Uranus.

It belongs to the Portia group, made up of Bianca, Cressida, Desdemona, Juliet, Portia, Rosalind, Cupid, Belinda and Perdita; these satellites have similar orbits and photometric characteristics.

Miranda and the more recent discoveries have also been named after Shakespearean characters, with the exception of Belinda (1986 U5), which was named after a character from Pope's “The Rape of the Lock.”
