The sky on
your birthday.
Stereo Helene
Put on your red/blue glasses and float next to Helene, one of Saturn's small, icy moons. Helene is a Trojan moon, orbiting at a gravitationally stable Lagrange point near Saturn and its larger moon, Dione. Irregularly shaped, Helene orbits at Dione's leading Lagrange point, while Polydeuces follows at Dione's trailing Lagrange point.
