Fact Sheet
Saturnian Pas de Deux
This color-enhanced image from the Cassini spacecraft shows that Epimetheus, one of the small moons of Saturn, is a dead world pockmarked by impact craters. Its claim to fame is that about every five years, it changes orbits with Janus, another moon. The last switch took place earlier this year. [Credit: NASA/JPL/SSI]
