So _1_6_10_7 is 1:600000000 or one in 60 million.</p><h3>S12 Helene</h3><p>Similar to <a href="https://www.printables.com/model/57341-telesto-and-calypso-scaled-one-in-500-thousand">Telesto</a> with <a href="https://www.printables.com/model/57257-tethys-scaled-one-in-ten-million">Tethys</a>, Helene orbits <a href="https://www.printables.com/model/57355-saturn-scaled-one-in-500-million">Saturn</a> 60 degrees preceding <a href="https://www.printables.com/model/57258-dione-scaled-one-in-ten-million">Dione</a>, in the Lagrangian point L4. Is the biggest known trojan moon. There is a smaller moon (about 3 km length) named Polydeuces orbiting the L5 point of the Saturn-Dione reference system. This kind of moons are though to be formed from the ejected material from impacts on the moon.</p><ul><li><strong>Type:</strong> Satellite&nbsp;</li><li><strong>Orbit:</strong> Saturn.
