The predicted occultation between the satellites Miranda(UV) and Oberon(UIV) was observed on July 30, 2007 using SpeX/IRTF system and CODAM‐Paris Observatory facility. Data analysis reveals that the predicted magnitude drop for this phenomenon was overestimated and we establish an upper limit of for the phenomenon, perhaps due to a non‐lambertian limb scattering. The astrometry obtained from this run reveals good agreement with the LA06 numerical model.
