Talk:Methone (moon)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I was looking through the USGS Astrogeology page, and came across this list of moon names and etymologies. Scroll down to Saturn's section. Methone and Pallene? These could only refer to s/2004 S1 and S2, but I can find no other references to them by those names. Anyone know anything about this? Maybe they're proposed names... --Patteroast 23:53, 24 Dec 2004 (UTC)
[edit] pronunciation
Robert Fagels, in the glossary for his translation of the Iliad, gives the pronunciation of Methone as me-thoh'-nee.
