Rotational and orbital periods are measured in Earth days. 'S' means synchronous and 'Ch' means chaotic. Dashes (-) represent unknown values. Name - commonly accepted English name of the satellite radius - mean distance from the object's center of gravity to a point on it's equator (in kilometers) mass - in kilograms density - relative to water (1 kg/liter) albedo - fraction of incident light that is reflected back into space (a perfect mirror would be 1.00) Vmag - visual magnitude; using the same scale as that used for stars, these are average values as observed from Earth rot. per. - rotational period; amount of time it takes for the object to rotate once on its axis orb. per. - orbital period; amount of time it takes to orbit its parent body once Orbital Parameters:   a - semi-major axis (in thousands of kilometers)   i - inclination (in degrees)   e - orbital eccentricity
