Janus

From Latin Iānus (“the Roman god Janus”).

Heavily cratered and irregularly shaped, Janus orbits Saturn just beyond the F ring and only 50km (30 miles) farther away than its co-orbital moon, Epimetheus.

2012 October, “Saturn”, in Martin Rees, editor, Universe, rev. edition, London: Dorling Kindersley, →ISBN, page 192:

Two of Saturn's small moons have the unique distinction of sharing the same orbit. Epimetheus and Janus circle the Lord of the Rings at a distance of just over 151,000 km, about half the distance from Earth to the Moon. Both are irregularly shaped. Janus is 179 km across, while Epimetheus is about 116 km in diameter.
