The six inner satellites of Saturn are situated nearly in the plane of the Ring and of the equator of the planet, the orbit of Titan, the outer one of these satellites departing only half a degree from this plane. The reason of this phenomenon has been explained by Laplace at the end of the second volume of the Mecanique Celeste. The orb1ts of these satellites may therefore be conveniently treated together, since the constants depending o...
