As indicated in Table 14, the outer eight satellites form two groups: one in which the satellites exhibit retrograde revolution around the planet ( Ananke, Carme, Pasiphae, and Sinope) and the other in which the orbital motion is prograde ( Leda, ...
The named moons in this group are Ananke, Carme, Pasiphae, and Sinope. The largest of this set is Pasiphae at 58 miles across. There are 21 other moons with boring names.
Then there are four more recently discovered moons, Ananke, and three more moons, of which scientists know little about. After these seven come Ananke, Carme, Pasiphaë, and Sinope, with two more moons in-between Pasiphaë and Sinope.
