S/2006 S 12 is a natural satellite of Saturn. Its discovery was announced by Scott S. Sheppard, David C. Jewitt, Jan Kleyna, E. Ashton and Brett J. Gladman on May 7, 2023 from observations taken between January 5, 2006 and July 8, 2021.
S/2006 S 12 is about ~4 kilometers in diameter, and orbits Saturn at a distance of 19.569 Gm in 1,043.16 days, at an inclination of 39.03, orbits in prograde direction and eccentricity of 0.542.
