S/2004 S 24

S/2004 S 24 is a natural satellite of Saturn, and the outermost known prograde satellite. Its discovery was announced by Scott S. Sheppard, David C. Jewitt, and Jan Kleyna on October 7, 2019 from observations taken between December 12, 2004 and March 22, 2007.
S/2004 S 24 is about ~3 kilometres in diameter, and orbits Saturn at an average distance of 22.901 Gm in 1294.25 days, at an inclination of 35.5° to the ecliptic, in a prograde direction and with an eccentricity of 0.085.
S/2004 S 24 may belong to the Gallic group; however, its semi-major axis is further out, making it the first outlier natural satellite discovered, since it's much further than other Gallic group members.
