- Saturn (yellow)
- Uranus (green)
- Neptune (blue)
The position of a satellite represents
- its orbit’s semi-major axis a as a fraction of the planet's Hill sphere's radius
- orbit’s inclination i in degrees (vertical axis).
- the size of the circle illustrates the satellites's size relative to others
Satellites beneath the axis (i>90) are retrograde.
