There are 18 moons that orbit Saturn and these are called :

Pan, Atlas, Pandora, Prometheus, Epimetheus , Janus, Mimus, Enceladus, telesto, Helene, Calypso, Tethys, Dione, Rhea, Titan, Hyperion, Iapetus and Phoebe

The names are all part of the roman memory so it's said...


There are countless pieces (of varying materials, sizes, densities, masses, and life expectancies) orbiting Saturn. What is lacking is consensus on a clear definition of the term, moon.

Saturn has 67 moons with confirmed orbits, as of March 2011.Twenty-four of them are regular satellites and thirty-seven have been confirmed as irregular satellites. 53 have been named and 9 are provisional. These are as follows:

Aegaeon

Aegir

Bebhionn

Bergelmir

no, Saturn has 47 moons.
20
Technically, thousands upon thousands since each rock making up its rings is a satellite; to date 60 major satellites are known (but this number will surely rise).

Saturn has 62 moons. Saturn has 62 moons.
Saturn has 62 moons.
No. Saturn has 62 moons.
Saturn has 62 known moons.
Sorry if I sound rude but don't take it personally, I preffer it when people finish their sentances, anyway, Saturn has 62 moons.
