Two-body orbit from published elements
Cassini is placed by solving a Keplerian orbit around saturn at the simulation time (a = 1,220,000 km, e = 0.57, period 16.7 d). Shown from 2004-07-01 until 2017-09-15.
NASA/ESA/ASI mission that transformed our understanding of Saturn, its rings, and its moons.
One record per aspect. The origin says what kind of thing each value is; the source says where it came from; the limit says what it cannot tell you.

Cassini: mass 5.712 × 10^3 kg. These values are bundled with the object record and drive the rendered size.
The close-up shows a published 3D model scaled to 11 m deployed magnetometer-boom extent. NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory; model distributed through NASA 3D Resources.
