What is a shepherd moon?
Sometimes rings will have ” shepherd ” moons, small moons that orbit near the inner or outer edges of rings or within gaps in the rings.
How big are the shepherds on Voyager 1?
The calculated diameter for such shepherds (about 10 kilometers) was just at the limit of detectability for the Voyager cameras, so it is impossible to say whether they are present or not. (Given all the narrow rings we see, some scientists still hope to find another more satisfactory mechanism for keeping them confined.)
What are the particles on Saturn’s moons made of?
The particles are mostly water ice, with typical dimensions of a few centimeters. One Saturn moon, Enceladus, is today erupting geysers of water to maintain the tenuous E Ring, which is composed of very small ice crystals.
What is a Hunters Moon?
Also known as a sanguine or “blood” moon, the term “Hunters Moon” is used traditionally to refer to a full moon that appears during the month of October.
