'''Dione''' is the fourth-largest moon of [[Saturn]], discovered by [[w:Giovanni Domenico Cassini|Giovanni Domenico Cassini]] on 30 March 1684, but the name was applied by [[w:John Herschel|John Herschel]] in 1847, and that one stuck.

== Dione in Orbiter ==
Dione was introduced to Orbiter with the release of Orbiter 2002 on 19 April 2002, and has been a part since.
