NEW SATELLITES
Voyager 1 photographed six tiny moons, some that had never been seen before. Satellites 10 and 11, dubbed the “co-orbitals,” share an orbit 91,000 kilometers (57,000 miles) above Saturn’s cloudtops. The leading satellite has a diameter of about 160 kilometers (100 miles), while the trailing satellite has an irregular shape, approximately 105 by 65 kilometers (65 by 40 miles).
Little is known about satellites 12, 13, 14, and 15 aside from their orbits and periods. Satellite 12 orbits at the same distance from Saturn as Dione, at a point about 60 degrees ahead of Dione. Satellites 13 and 14, outside and inside the F-Ring (respectively), appear to “herd” this thin ring between them. Satellite 15 appears to limit the outer edge of the A-Ring in a similar manner.
