The ringed gas giant Saturn has officially replaced Jupiter as the planet in our solar system with the most moons. The International Astronomical Union officially recognized 128 new moons orbiting Saturn, bringing the new total up to 274 moons .

Saturn has taken an impressive lead in the "who has the most moons" race with Jupiter after the discovery of a further 128 natural satellites orbiting the gas giant. From 2019 to 2021, the Canada France Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) repeatedly monitored the space around Saturn for signs of moons and other objects.

Astronomers have discovered 128 new moons orbiting Saturn, making its total 274 moons. This discovery surpassed Jupiter's count of 95 moons. These moo

The objects around the ringed planet are tiny, but some of them may have formed relatively recently in the solar system’s history.

Saturn leads the list of planets with the most moons since 2023. Now that a record discovery was published, it seems to be uncatchable at the top.

Saturn has dozens of new moons, bringing it to a total of 274. All of the new moons are between 2 and 4 kilometres wide, but at what point is a rock too small to be a moon?

Scientists have discovered 128 new moons around Saturn, bringing the total number to 274. This is the largest number of such objects orbiting a planet in our Solar System. It turns out that Saturn still holds many secrets for us.

Scientists have identified over 100 additional moons orbiting Saturn, potentially resulting from cosmic collisions that deposited debris in the planet's orbit as recently as 100 million years ago.The solar system's gas giants possess numerous moons,
