Best Answer

Both Jupiter and Saturn have more than 60 moons. Saturn may have more than 200, at least 61 have secure orbits. Saturn has 34 that have been named, and 49 altogether. It could have more, depending on how small a body qualifies as a moon. Saturn has broad rings of debris, so large they are visible from earth via small telescope. Jupiter also has rings, but its rings are faint and wispy.

Jupiter has the largest moon, Ganymede, and two others nearly as large. Saturn has only one moon nearly the size of Ganymede--Titan. Titan is the only moon with an appreciable atmosphere, and Titan's atmosphere has 10 times the surface pressure of earth's.
