Gallic group

The Gallic group is a dynamical grouping of prograde irregular satellites of Saturn. They are thought have a common origin in a captured asteroid that was later involved in a collision, making them a likely collisional family. Most of the moons follow similar orbits, although one moon, S/2004 S 24, has a much higher semi-major axis and a much lower eccentricity than the others, so it is not known whether it originated from the same parent body as the rest of the group. The International Astronomical Union (IAU) reserves names taken from Gallic mythology for these moons, though only four of them have names at present.
