'''Tarvos (Saturn XXI, S/2000 S 4)''' is one of the outer prograde irregular [[Natural satellites|moons]] of [[Saturn]]. It was discovered by [[w:John J. Kavelaars|John J. Kavelaars]] et al in 2000. It is named for a bull god in [[w:Celtic mythology|Celtic mythology]].
 
 
 
== Tarvos in Orbiter ==
 
Tarvos was first introduced into Orbiter with the add-on ''saturn_iv.zip'' in February 2003. Note that Tarvos is provided by the add-on as ''S/2000-S4''. To simulate it as ''Tarvos'', the following changes need to be made.
 
 
 
*File:S2000_S4.cfg:
 
**change the filename to Tarvos.cfg
 
**change the name in the comment line in the top line to ''Tarvos (S/2000-S4, Saturn)''
 
**line 3, change ''NAME ='' to Tarvos
 
**Last line, change the name of ''Base1 ='' to Tarvos
 
*File:S4-Station.cfg
 
**change the filename to Tarvos-station.cfg
 
**Line 3, change the name to Tarvos-Station
 
*File:Saturn_S2000S4.scn
 
**change the filename to Saturn_Tarvos.scn
 
**Line 2, change ''S12 Station'' to ''Tarvos Station''
 
**Find the GL-01 ship, change STATUS ''Landed S2000-S4'' to ''Landed Tarvos''
 
**Change BASE ''S4-Station:1'' to ''Tarvos-Station:1''
 
 
 
*File:S2000-S4.tex, change filename to Tarvos.tex
 
 
 
*File:S2000-S4M.BMP, change filename to TarvosM.BMP
