Meet Frank the Moon

Short and sweet post, I just had to fill you in on a new Saturn moon, so far they have named it "Frank" . This is Saturn's 60th. moon, Jupiter is leading at the moment with 62. The 2 gas giants have been battling it out for the most moons for years, its been a back and forth thing for as long as I can remember. Just a little tidbit of info, if you could build a pool big enough for Saturn to fit in, it would float. Saturn's density is less than that of water since it is made up mostly of the light gases hydrogen and helium.

I wonder how much the number has changed since the last time I learned about all these stuffs during my school time.

Frank... What an interesting name for the moon. Why not Bob? Did they already have a moon named Bob.

Ps: Thanks for your email. It is nice to know someone misses me.
