Beskrivning:

This is an illustration of the horseshoe orbits of Janus and Epimetheus around Saturn. The dates in this image were taken from "The Rotation of Janus and Epimetheus" by Tiscareno et al. published in Icarus, July 6 2009. The size of Saturn is proportional to the average orbital radius, but the distance from the average radius to the inner/outer radii has been exaggerated 500-fold. The sizes of the moons are exaggerated 50-fold.
