Minor-planet moon uncertain. There are 5 Jupiter trojans with a moon. Candidate binaries with an unconfirmed status are displayed on a dark background. There are only 2 centaurs with satellites, both of which are ring systems instead of moons. There are 87 trans-Neptunian objects known to have moons, with a total of 93 moons discovered. Candidate binaries with an unconfirmed status are displayed on a dark background. Minor-planet moon A minor-planet moon is an astronomical object that orbits a minor planet as its natural satellite. It is thought that many asteroids and Kuiper belt objects may possess moons, in some cases quite
Moons of Saturn came from materials in the Oort cloud, associated with comets, and not from the materials that formed Saturn in earlier times. Studies based on Enceladus's tidal-based geologic activity and the lack of evidence of extensive past resonances in Tethys, Dione, and Rhea's orbits suggest that the moons inward of Titan may be only 100 million years old. Moons of Saturn The moons of Saturn are numerous and diverse, ranging from tiny moonlets less than 1 kilometer across to the enormous Titan, which is larger than the planet Mercury. Saturn has 62 moons with confirmed orbits, 53 of which have names
