Saturn Moons
provided by NASA
Saturn has 82 moons. Fifty-three moons are confirmed and named and another 29 moons are awaiting confirmation of discovery and official naming. Saturn’s moons range in size from larger than the planet Mercury — the giant moon Titan — to as small as a sports arena. The moons shape, contribute and also collect material from Saturn’s rings and magnetosphere.
