Saturn's moon Dione was discovered in 1684 by the Italian astronomer Giovanni Cassini. The moon was named after the titan Dione of Greek mythology. It is also known as Saturn IV.
The moon Dione is a moon of the planet Saturn, named for the Greek goddess, in some mythologies the mother of Aphrodite. Dione was one of four Saturnian moons discovered by Cassini in 1684.The name is shared by the main belt asteroid 106 Dione.
Huygens discovered Saturn's moon Titan; Giovanni Domenico Cassini later discovered four other moons: Iapetus, Rhea, Tethys and Dione.
Dione (Moon of Saturn) has a diameter of about 1,122km (698 mi)
I think you're confusing Saturn with Jupiter. Jupiter has four major moons, Saturn has seven. Saturn's moons were disovered by three people. Titan, Saturn's largest moon, was discovered by Christiaan Huygens. Tethys, Dione, Rhea, and Iapetus were discovered by Giovanni Domenico Cassini. William Herschel discovered Mimas and Enceladus. Galileo Galilei discovered Jupiter's four major moons.
Titan, Phoebe, Enceladus, and Dione
"Dust" "Dione" (A moon of Saturn). There are probably others!
The four moons of saturn were discovered by different people at different times and not by any single individual. The first moon is Titan, which was discovered by Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens on March 25, 1655. The secondmoon was named Dione, which was discovered by Italian/French astrologer Giovanni Cassini in 1684. The third moon is called Prometheus, which was named after a powerful deity in Greek mythology. Stewart A. Collins discovered it sometime in October 1980. The fourth moon is named Telesto, which was named again after a Greek mythological character. On April 8, 1980, astronomers named John W. Fountain, Stephen M. Larson, Harold J. Reitsema and Bradford A. Smith discovered this moon.
Dione is one of the moons of Saturn. It is an icy moon that has been suggested might have a liquid layer running underneath the icy crust.
the first moon discovered on Saturn is Aegaeon
Dione is one of Saturn's moons.
The planet Saturn has 62 moons. Giovanni Domenico Cassini discovered four of them. Other people who discovered some of Saturn's moons are Dione, William Herschel, and Christiaan Huygens.
Saturn's moon Dione has a thin oxygen atmosphere. Dione, which has large craters, is a relatively small moon, measuring 698 miles in diameter.
