}}Cordelia ({{IPAc-en|k|ɔr|ˈ|d|iː|l|i|ə}} {{respell|kor|DEE|lee-ə}}) is the innermost known moon of Uranus. It was discovered from the images taken by Voyager 2 on January 20, 1986, and was given the temporary designation S/1986 U 7.[15] It was not detected again until the Hubble Space Telescope observed it in 1997.[12][17] Cordelia takes its name from the youngest daughter of Lear in William Shakespeare's King Lear. It is also designated Uranus VI.[18]

Other than its orbit, radius of 20 km[5] and geometric albedo of 0.08[12] virtually nothing is known about it. In the Voyager 2 images Cordelia appears as an elongated object with its major axis pointing towards Uranus. The ratio of axes of Cordelia's prolate spheroid is 0.7 ± 0.2.[5]

Cordelia acts as the inner shepherd satellite for Uranus' ε ring.[23] Cordelia's orbit is within Uranus' synchronous orbit radius, and is therefore slowly decaying due to tidal deceleration.[5]

Cordelia is very close to a 5:3 orbital resonance with Rosalind.[25]
