Ursula (The Little Mermaid)
Ursula is a fictional character who appears in Walt Disney Pictures' animated film '' The Little Mermaid'' (1989). Voiced by actress Pat Carroll, Ursula is a villainous Cecaelian sea witch who offers her youngest niece, mermaid princess Ariel, a temporary opportunity to become human so that she may earn the love of Prince Eric within three days. However, Ursula, in fact, is determined to sabotage Ariel's chances in order to usurp her older brother King Triton's position as ruler of the oceans. Created by directors and screenwriters Ron Clements and John Musker, Ursula is based on the sea witch character who appears in the 1837 fairy tale " The Little Mermaid" by Hans Christian Andersen.

Saint Ursula
Ursula (Latin for 'little she-bear') was a Romano-British virgin and martyr possibly of royal origin. She is venerated as a saint in the Roman Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodox Church and the Anglican Communion. Her feast day in the pre-1970 General Roman Calendar and in some regional calendars of the ordinary form of the Roman Rite is 21 October. History There is little information about Ursula or the anonymous group of holy virgins who accompanied her and, on an uncertain date, were killed along with her at Colonia Agrippina. They remain in the Roman Martyrology, although their commemoration does not appear in the simplified General Roman Calendar of the 1970 Missale Romanum. The earliest evidence of a cult of martyred virgins at Cologne is an inscription from in the Church of St. Ursula, located on Ursulaplatz in Cologne. This inscription commonly referred to as the Clematius Inscription states that the ancient basilica had been restored by senator Clemantius on the s ...

Ursula (crater)
Ursula is the second-largest impact crater known on Uranus's moon Titania. It is about 135 km across, and is cut by Belmont Chasma. It is named after Hero's attendant in William Shakespeare's comedy ''Much Ado About Nothing''; the name Ursula was officially adopted by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) in 1988. Geology and characteristics With a diameter of approximately 135 kilometers, Ursula is the second-largest known impact feature on Titania, after Gertrude. Ursula is disrupted by a series of parallel chasms. The crater has a flat floor, and Ursula has what appears to be a central pit with diameter of about 20 km. However, the structure is more likely to be a series of depressions due to multiple tectonic faults breaking up the crater floor. It is probably one of the youngest large impact craters on Titania. The crater is surrounded by smooth plains, which have the lowest impact crater density of all geological units on the moon, although they are cut b ...
