Titan, Dione, Tethys, and Mimas are moons of Saturn.
Titan, Dione, Tethys, and Mimas are moons of Saturn.
Saturn is the planet that has many moons including Titan, Dione, Tethys, and Mimas. Saturn's moons are diverse in size, composition, and features, making them objects of interest for study and exploration.
Saturn has six major moons: Titan, Rhea, Iapetus, Dione, Tethys, and Mimas.
Saturn's moons, ranked from largest to smallest, include Titan, Rhea, Iapetus, Dione, Tethys, Enceladus, and Mimas. Titan is the largest and is notable for its dense atmosphere and liquid lakes, while Rhea is the second largest with a heavily cratered surface. Iapetus, Dione, Tethys, Enceladus, and Mimas follow, each varying in size and geological features, with Enceladus known for its geysers and potential subsurface ocean.
The seven spherical (major) moons of Saturn, compared to the diameter of Earth's moon, in descending order, are:Titan:......... 148%,Rhea:........... 44%,Iapetus........ 42%,Dione:.......... 32%,Tethys:......... 30%,Enceladus:.... 14%,Mimas:.......... 12%.These are the only moons of Saturn that are massive enough to assume a spherical shape.

Dione is one of Saturn's moons.
Mimas and Tethys, both moons of Saturn, have spectacularly large craters which dominate certain views, and rival the Death Star (and maybe inspired it!). Some astronomers have questioned how an impact crater such a large fraction of the moons' diameters did not completely break them apart. Odysseus crater on Tethys is 450km in diameter; Herschel crater on Mimas is about 139km across.
Saturn has 30 moons, 12 of which are unnamed. The named ones are Pan, Atlas, Prometheus, Pandora, Epimetheus, Jana, Mimas, Enceladus, Tethys, Telesto, Calypso, Dione, Helene, Rhia, Titan, Hyperion, Iapetus, and Pheobe
