Space Time
Saturn's innermost major moon. Famous for its giant Herschel crater.
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.
Mimas is placed by solving a Keplerian orbit around saturn at the simulation time (a = 185,540 km, e = 0.0196, i = 1.6°, period 0.9 d).
Mimas: mean radius 198.2 km. These values are bundled with the object record and drive the rendered size.
