Jupiter usurps its father again, but how long can it retain its new title? As in mythology, Jupiter has supplanted Saturn for another grand title. Astronomers recently reported that Jupiter now has more moons than Saturn, wresting the title of "the planet with the most moons" from the Ringed Planet after many years.
Jupiter s moons were recently added to the list kept by the International Astronomical Union s Minor Planet Centre, according to Carnegie Institution s Scott Sheppard, who was part of the team.
Jupiter is now the planet with the highest number of moons in the solar system at 92. Jupiter was always known as the largest planet in the solar system.
