Regions called "horseshoes" and "tadpoles" exist along the orbits of Saturn's satellites, within which particles can be trapped by gravitational interactions of Saturn and the satellites. While the extent of particle accumulation is not known, trapped particles might pose a hazard to the Cassini Spacecraft. Methods of reducing exposure time and effects of these methods on science return are discussed.
