Faint signatures detected by the Canada France Hawaii Telescope have revealed 128 new moons around Saturn, making it the indisputable frontrunner for having the most moons in our solar system.

The sixth planet from the Sun now has a grand total of 274 moons, the most of any planet in the Solar System.

Saturn has cemented its status as the planet with the most moons, leaving Jupiter trailing behind. Astronomers have confirmed the discovery of 128 additional moons orbiting Saturn, bringing its total to an astonishing 274.

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

Saturn’s moons have been the subject of a lot of astronomical attention over the years. They range in size from the planet-sized Titan, which is larger than Mercury, to tiny potato-shaped moons. Among Saturn’s crowded collection of moons,
