 | | none } Mimas (mee'-mÉs or mye'-mÉs,, Greek ÎίμᾱÏ, rarely ÎίμανÏ) is a moon of Saturn that was discovered in 1789 by William Herschel. |
 | | The names of all seven then-known satellites of Saturn, including Mimas, were suggested by William Herschel's son John in his 1847 publication Results of Astronomical Observations made at the Cape of Good Hope. |
 | | He named them after Titans specifically because Saturn (the Roman equivalent of Kronos in Greek mythology), was the leader of the Titans. |
