Fenrir

Fenrir, characterized as an irregular moon of Saturn, holds a place of significance within the Norse group of satellites. Its discovery in 2004 by astronomers led by Scott S. Sheppard, utilizing the Subaru Telescope in Hawaii, pays homage to Norse mythology. Fenrir’s unique irregular orbit, marked by eccentricity and inclination, sets it apart from Saturn's predominant regular moons that follow orbits closer to the planet's equatorial plane. As a participant in the Norse group, alongside moons like Hyrrokkin and Skathi, Fenrir shares analogous orbital characteristics, implying a conceivable shared origin, possibly rooted in the fragmentation of a larger moon. Nevertheless, due to its significant distance from Earth and the scarcity of observational data, substantive specifics about Fenrir’s physical attributes—including size, composition, and surface features—remain concealed. Fenrir, akin to other irregular moons, is presumed to have been captured by Saturn's gravitational pull, indicating an origin from the outer solar system.
