Discovery of 20 new moons puts Saturn ahead of Jupiter 0 SHARES Share it! Twenty new moons have been found around Saturn, giving the ringed planet a total of 82, scientists said Monday. If it’s any consolation to the Jupiter crowd, our solar system’s biggest planet — Jupiter — still has the biggest moon. It’s harder spotting mini moons around Saturn than Jupiter, Sheppard said, given how much farther Saturn is. “So seeing that Saturn has more moons even though it is harder to find them, shows just how many moons Saturn has collected over time,” he wrote in an email.
