Description: Graph showing the outer moons of Saturn. Symbol size represents the relative size of the moon. Moons are color coded to the below table of moons. The very distant prograde moon, provisionally named S/2004 S24, is clearly distinct from the previously known members of the 36 degree inclination Gallic group. There appear to be three distinct Inuit prograde groups, centered on the largest member of each: Kiviuq, Paaliaq and Siarnaq.
