discovery

The discovery of Narvi by Scott S. Sheppard , David C. Jewitt and Jan Kleyna on recordings from February 5 to April 3, 2003, was announced on April 8, 2003. Narvi was initially given the provisional name S / 2003 S 1. In January 2005, the moon was named after the giant Narfi from Nordic mythology .

Orbit data

Narvi orbits Saturn on an eccentric orbit at a mean distance of 18,719,000 km in 956 days and 6 hours. The orbit has an eccentricity of 0.3522 ° and is strongly inclined at 134.592 ° against the ecliptic , which represents the Laplace plane at this distance from Saturn .

Structure and physical data

Narvi has a diameter of 6.6 km. With an albedo of 0.06, its surface is very dark. Only 6% of the incident sunlight is reflected.
