		The distribution of the known moons over the planets is shown in the following table, which also displays for each planet the last year of the discovery of a moon (per 2006-05-25).
		This table shows the moons that are on average the furthest from or the closest to the center of their planet, measured in units of 1000 km.
		The table lists the moons with the greatest density (compared to water), in general and for each planet, and the moons with the smallest known density.

	Eukelade (moon) - Slider
		Eukelade is about 4 kilometres in diameter, and orbits Jupiter at an average distance of 23,484 Mm in 735.200 days, at an inclination of 143° to the ecliptic (118° to Jupiter's equator), in a retrograde direction and with an eccentricity of 0.2829.
		It is named after Eukelade, described by some Greek writers as one of the Muses, and thus a daughter of Zeus (Jupiter).
		Eukelade belongs to the Carme group, made up of irregular retrograde moons orbiting Jupiter at a distance ranging between 23 and 24 Gm and at an inclination of about 165°.

		It is thought that the three groups of smaller moons may each have a common origin, perhaps as a larger moon or captured body that broke up into the existing moons of each group.
		All Jupiter' s moons are tidally locked with the planet so that their rotational periods and orbital periods are the same.

		Moons orbiting relatively close to the planet on prograde orbits (regular satellites) are believed to have been formed out of the same collapsing region of protoplanetary disk that gave rise to its primary.
		Most regular moons in the solar system are tidally locked to their primaries, meaning that one side of the moon is always turned toward the planet.
		In addition to the moons of the various planets there are also over 80 known moons of the dwarf planets, asteroids and other small solar system bodies.

		Of the inner planets, Mercury and Venus have no moons at all; Earth has one large moon ("the Moon " or "Luna "); and Mars has two tiny moons, Phobos and Deimos.
		For example in the case of Earth's Moon a portion of the planet itself blasted into orbit by a large impact.
		The largest moons in the solar system (those bigger than about 3000 km across) are Earth's Moon, Jupiter 's Galilean moons (Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto), Saturn 's moon Titan, and Neptune 's captured moon Triton.

		The Galilean moons: Shown from left to right in order of increasing distance from Jupiter, Io is closest, followed by Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto.
		Although claims are made for the observation of one of Jupiter's moons by Chinese astronomer Gan De in 364 BC, the first certain observations of Jupiter's satellites are those of Galileo Galilei in 1610, who sighted the four large Galilean moons with his 33x telescope.
		All of these moons are thought to be captured asteroidal or perhaps cometary bodies, possibly fragmented into several pieces, but very little is actually known about them.
