शनि के प्राकृतिक उपग्रह

शनि का उपग्रह मण्डल बहुत ही एक-तरफ़ा है: शनि के इर्द-गिर्द उसके उपग्रहों और छल्लों में मिलकर जितना भी द्रव्यमान उसकी परिक्रमा कर रहा है उसका ९६% से अधिक हिस्सा सिर्फ़ एक उपग्रह, टाइटन में निहित है। शनि के बाक़ी ६ गोलाकार चंद्रमाओं में लगभग ४% है। अन्य ५० से भी अधिक उपग्रहों और छल्लों को मिलाकर सिर्फ़ ०.०४% ही बनता है।
