why are three of saturn’s satellites called “shepherd moons” ?
Cruz Ornelas
On May 22, 1876 a Brazilian astronamer name Sir Pablo Shephard viewed one of the sattelites with a primitive telescopeand decried "what the flock is that?". He then noticed two more and dubbed them shepherd moons. It is merely coincidence that his favorite meal was shepard's pie.
