Aitne (Jupiter XXXI, S/2001 J 11) is a retrograde satellite of Jupiter. It was discovered by Scott Sheppard et al at the Mauna Kea Observatories in Hawaii in December 2001. It is named for Aetna, one of a daughter of Uranus in Greek mythology.

Aitne in Orbiter[edit]

Aitne was first introduced into Orbiter with the add-on jupiter_v.zip in August 2003. Note that Aitne is provided by the add-on as S/2001-J 11. To simulate it as Aitne, the following changes need to be made.

  • File:S2001_J11.cfg:
    • change the filename to Aitne.cfg
    • change the name in the comment line in the top line to Aitne (S/2001-J11, Jupiter)
    • line 3, change NAME = to Aitne
    • Last line, change the name of Base1 = to Aitne
  • File:S2000J11-Station.cfg
    • change the filename to Aitne-station.cfg
    • Line 3, change the name to Aitne-Station
  • File:Jupiter_S2001J11.scn
    • change the filename to Jupiter-Aitne.scn
    • Line 2, change S2000J11 Station to Aitne Station
    • Find the GL-01 ship, change STATUS Landed S2001-J11 to Landed Aitne
    • Change BASE S2001J11-Station:1 to Aitne-Station:1
  • File:S2001-J11.tex, change filename to Aitne.tex
  • File:S2001-J11M.BMP, change filename to AitneM.BMP
