A Simulation of Saturn’s 274 Moons
Recently, Saturn became the undisputed king of moons, officially reaching a staggering total of 274 confirmed natural satellites—more than any other planet in our Solar System. We’ve created this simulation using orbital data from each of these moons to visually represent their relative distances, orbital inclinations, and patterns around Saturn. The planet itself has been scaled up for visual clarity, allowing you to better grasp the complex and dynamic architecture of its moon system. From tiny irregular moons on eccentric paths to the major players like Titan and Enceladus, this animation offers a rare look at the hidden order within Saturn’s sprawling gravitational domain. https://video.nostr.build/7aa6ecf55fae506f4febd5defc5d6f0e7cd76c935566a1059cd6bb9132213f20.mp4
