Helene (moon)

Helene is a small moon of Saturn, discovered in 1980. It is named after the character Helene from Greek mythology, specifically referring to Helen of Troy. Helene orbits Saturn at a distance of about 269,000 kilometers (approximately 167,000 miles) and is classified as a co-orbital satellite of another moon, Dione, which means that Helene shares its orbital path but maintains a stable position relative to Dione.
