Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The image shows orbital inclinations of irregular satellites of Saturn as a function of their semi-major axises. The negative inclinations correspond to retrograde moving satellites (180°–inclination). The bars parallel to the X-axis correspond to the range of their distances from Saturn. (from the periapse to apoapse) The diameters of gray circles are proportional to the moon's diameters. The names of satellites equal or larger than 15 km are shown. The three groups of irregular satellites (Inuit, Gallic and Norse) are also indicated. The information was taken from http://www.dtm.ciw.edu/users/sheppard/satellites/satsatdata.html website.
