Janus: Potato Shaped Moon of Saturn
Saturn's moon Janus is a lumpy, potato-shaped world, about 190 kilometers across. This image shows its heavily cratered surface. Janus shares an unusual orbit with its sister moon Epimetheus, periodically swapping places as they circle Saturn. Scientists are still studying why Janus seems to lack smaller craters.
