Introduction
Mimas, also known asd Saturn 1, is one of the moons of Saturn. With an orbital period of 0.942 Earth Days, Mimas has an average orbital speed of 14.28 kilometers per second. Mimas has a radius of 198.2 ±0.4 kilometers and a mass of 3.75 ×1019 kilograms. That makes Mimas the size of 0.0311 Earths. Mimas is just one of 82 confirmed moons (as of March 2020) orbiting Saturn. Profile of Mimas Mimas The Moon was discovered on September 17th, 1789 by German-Born British Astronomer William Herschel. A Crater on Mimas was even named after William Herschel, the crater being named Herschel. Mimas has a zero axis tilt and a gravity of 0.064 meters per second squared. In fact, the escape velocity for Mimas is 0.159 kilometers per second or 0.098 miles per second; so one does not need to go extremely fast in order to escape Mimas into Space but still would have to go 352.8 miles per hour. Mimas has an average temperature of 64 Kelvin or negative 209.15 degrees Celsius or negative 344.47 degrees Fahrenheit. Mimas is said to have a close resemblance to that of The Death Star in Star Wars.
