Description
English: Orbits of Saturn's 122 known irregular satellites as of May 2023, with positions set on 25 Feb 2023 (JD 2460000.5). The top view (looking down from ecliptic north) is shown above, while the side view (looking directly at Saturn from the direction of the Sun) is shown below. The moon orbits are colored based on their direction of orbits; prograde satellites are colored blue while retrograde satellites are colored red. Saturn's regular satellites are colored in turquoise; the outermost regular satellite is Iapetus. Orbits are calculated from JPL-HORIZONS elements based on epoch 25 Feb 2023 (JD 2460000.5).
