Cassini's laws refer to a set of three mathematical descriptions regarding the motion of a body in an orbit around another body, specifically in the context of a rotating body and its satellite. These laws are particularly relevant to the motion of the moons of planets, such as the Earth-Moon system or the various moons of Saturn, which were studied extensively by Giovanni Domenico Cassini in the late 17th century.
