Because the orbits of Prometheus and Pandora are chaotic, it is suspected that Atlas's may be as well. Ītlas is significantly perturbed by Prometheus and to a lesser degree by Pandora, leading to excursions in longitude of up to 600 km (~0.25°) away from the precessing Keplerian orbit with a rough period of about 3 years. This would mean that for any additional particles impacting the equator, the centrifugal force will nearly overcome Atlas's tiny gravity, and they will probably be lost. In fact, the size of the equatorial ridge is comparable with the expected Roche lobe of the moon. The most likely explanation for this unusual and prominent structure is that ring material swept up by the moon accumulates on the moon, with a strong preference for the equator due to the ring's thinness. High-resolution images taken in June 2005 by Cassini revealed Atlas to have a roughly spherical centre surrounded by a large, smooth equatorial ridge. In 2004 a faint, thin ring, temporarily designated R/2004 S 1, was discovered in the Atlantean orbit. There are 171 moons, or natural satellites, orbiting the planets in our solar system Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune have 1, 2, 66, 62, 27, and 13 moons, respectively. However, now it is known that the outer edge of the ring is instead maintained by a 7:6 orbital resonance with the larger but more distant moons Janus and Epimetheus. It is also designated Saturn XV.Ītlas is the closest satellite to the sharp outer edge of the A ring, and was long thought to be a shepherd satellite for this ring. In 1983 it was officially named after Atlas of Greek mythology, because it "holds the rings on its shoulders" like the Titan Atlas held the sky up above the Earth. Indulge in illicit bliss with a luscious Eau de Parfum created by Nathalie Feisthauer.Atlas is an inner satellite of Saturn which was discovered by Richard Terrile in 1980 from Voyager photos and was designated S/1980 S 28. The result is Missoni’s personal interpretation of our closest heavenly body, a journey through his lifelong appreciation of Earth’s satellite and a beautiful book capturing the obsession of artists throughout history from the perspective of a seasoned eye.Ī TEASE OF VELVET AND FLESH: stripped layers of sheer Calla Lily, flirty Pear, suave Jasmine, hot Pink Pepper and skin Musk. Moon Atlas is structured in two sections: a photographic study of the moon in each of its phases, followed by playful renderings of the moon in various colors and compositions, highlighting the tension between the bright visible face and the hidden dark side. The main part of this book consists of a detailed atlas of the near side of the Moon, subdivided into 76 sections with complete nomenclature as outhorized by the International Astronomical Union (lAU), including recent amendments up to 2003, Each section is accompanied by a Whos who on the Moon summary containing information about the individu. Luca Missoni (born 1956), artistic director of the Missoni Archive, has been infatuated with the moon since childhood, observing it through a telescope and collecting maps and books about the moon, and, over the past 20 years, incorporating it into his artistic research as a photographer.
