I guess it might be THE most concise and up to date article about planetary moons as well as asteroidal moons, including the most recent developments in the subject and entirely translated into English Please take a look: http://ksiezyce.republika.pl/download/all_...t_and_small.pdf Andrzej also made a wonderful animation of asteroid Sylvia which has 2 moons just like Mars. It can be found here: http://moonlets.republika.pl/animations_en.html Regards, Karol P. -------------------- Neptune's 160th Anniversary: http://www.flickr.com/photos/56566887@N00/...57606142220219/
