Cassini and Saturn's moons ephemeris at AMDA

• Cassini/Titan/Enceladus Ephemeris are calculated by Joseph Groene of University of Iowa based on CASSINI SPICE kernels. All data are taken from Joseph Groene site
• Ephemeris are presented in geographic Saturn barycentric coordinates and include
  • Western Longitude_IAU,
    based on the Voyager determination of the period of Saturn kilometric radiation (SKR).

  • Western Longitude_SLS3,
    based on Cassini SKR measurements.
    The SLS3 longitude system is only valid for time period: 01.01.2004 - 10.08.2007.
