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

Dione in Orbiter[edit]

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