Orbital Cycles of Saturn’s Moons Over One Month.

Chart showing the orbital cycles of Saturn’s moons Titan, Rhea, Dione, Enceladus, and Tethys as sine waves, depicting their east-to-west motion over one month from April 1 to May 1.

This detailed chart illustrates the orbital patterns of Saturn’s moons over the course of a month, making it a perfect addition to astronomy and space science textbooks from middle school to high school levels. The visualization highlights the varying orbits of Titan, Rhea, Dione, Tethys, and Enceladus, showing their relative motion as they move east and west across the sky. This is an excellent teaching tool for understanding orbital resonance and the celestial mechanics of Saturn’s satellite system.
