	Phoebe (moon) - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		Phoebe (fee'-bee, IPA /ˈfiːbi/, Greek Φοίβη) is a moon of Saturn.
		The outer moons can be broken down into two groups: Siarnaq's group (Kiviuq, Ijiraq, Paaliaq, Albiorix, Erriapo, Siarnaq and Tarvos) is inclined 33.5-46.5° whilst Phoebe's group (Phoebe, Skathi, Narvi, Mundilfari, Suttungr, Thrymr and Ymir) is retrograde and inclined 134.5-175.5°.
		Both groups are fairly to highly eccentric, and none of their moons are expected to rotate synchronously as all the inner moons of Saturn do (except for Hyperion).

	Saturn's natural satellites - Biocrawler
		However, the precise number of Saturn's moons will never be certain as the orbiting chunks of ice in Saturn's rings are all technically moons, and it is difficult to draw a distinction between a large ring particle and a tiny moon.
		Saturn's shepherd moons are Pan, S/2005 S 1, Atlas, Prometheus, Pandora, S/2004 S 3, in addition to the unconfirmed moons S/2004 S 4 and S/2004 S 6.
		They are moons that orbit at exactly the same distance from Saturn as another moon, but at such a distance from the other moon that they never collide.

	Calypso (moon) - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		Calypso (kə-lip'-soe, IPA /kəˈlɪpso/, Greek Καλυψώ) is a moon of Saturn.
		The moon Telesto resides in Tethys' leading Lagrangian point, 60 degrees ahead of Tethys.
		Like many other small Saturnian moons and small asteroids it is irregularly shaped by overlapping large craters and appears to also have loose surface material capable of smoothing the appearance of craters.

	Astronomy Answers: AstronomyAnswerBook: Moons
		Moons that are further away from the Sun tend to have more ice than moons that are closer to the Sun.
		Our Moon and the moons of Mars have no ice at all (except perhaps in deep craters near the poles), but the moon Europa of Jupiter has a layer of ice that is many kilometers thick.
		Moons and planets are formed from numerous large and small fragments that collide with each other and sometimes partially stick together.

	Britain.tv Wikipedia - Titan (moon)
		It is roughly 50% larger than our own moon by diameter, and is larger by diameter and mass than all known dwarf planets.
		Titan's diameter and mass (and thus its density) are similar to Jovian moons Ganymede and Callisto.
		Though similar in composition to Rhea and the rest of Saturn's moons, it is denser due to gravitational compression.

		Skathi is about 6.4 kilometres in diameter, and orbits Saturn at an average distance of 15,576 Mm in 725.784 days, at an inclination of 149° to the ecliptic (154° to Saturn's equator), in a retrograde motion direction and with an eccentricity (orbit) of 0.246.
		The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress includes an incident in which the protagonist visits the U.S. Southern states, and is briefly jailed for polygamy, later learning that the "...range of color in Davis family was what got judge angry enough..." to have him arrested.
		In The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress, prerevolutionary life under the Lunar Authority is portrayed as a kind of anarchist or libertarian utopia ; projections of economic disaster are the true (and secret) justification for the revolution, which brings with it the evils of republicanism.

	On This and Other Moons
		If the sizes of the moons are expressed relative to their primary (the planet they orbit) there are still more surprises.
		Being close to Jupiter (it is the innermost of the Galilean moons) the planet's massive gravity stretches the moon by some 100m and locks its rotation so the same side always faces the planet.
		When it was discovered in 1978 it was realised that images previously thought to be of just Pluto had actually represented both the planet and its huge moon, and estimates of the planet's size had to be revised downwards.

	Natural satellite Biography,info
		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.

	Saturn's Moons
		Most of the moons, which are small, were probably captured asteroids, and did not form with Saturn.

		Most moons are assumed to have been out of the same collapsing region of protoplanetary disk that gave rise to its primary.
		Several moons are thought to captured foreign objects fragments of larger moons by large impacts or (in the case Earth's Moon) a portion of the planet itself into orbit by a large impact.
		Most moons in the solar system are tidally locked to their primaries; an exception is Saturn 's moon Hyperion which rotates chaotically due to a of external influences.

		Asteroid moons are asteroids that orbit larger asteroids.
		Prior to the 2006 redefinitions, Charon was considered a moon of Pluto, but in light of the redefinition it is unclear whether Charon will continue to be classified as a moon of Pluto or as a dwarf planet itself.
		He discovered that the Moon was cratered, that the Sun was pocked with sunspots, and that Jupiter had four satellites in orbit around it.

		When the Moon is between the Sun and the Earth, its sunlit side is turned away from the Earth and we say there is no Moon.
