Daphnis (moon) by Wikipedia Bot 0
Daphnis is a small moon of Saturn, discovered in 2005. It is named after a character from Greek mythology, specifically a shepherd who was associated with the pastoral and the nature of love. Daphnis is particularly notable for its role in the structure of Saturn's rings. Daphnis is located within the Keeler Gap, a division in Saturn's outer A-ring, and its gravitational influence helps to maintain the sharp edges of this gap.

Moonlet by Wikipedia Bot 0
"Moonlet" typically refers to a small moon or a minor natural satellite that orbits a planet. The term is often used in the context of planetary science and astronomy to describe smaller celestial bodies that may accompany larger moons or planets. These moonlets can have varying sizes and characteristics, and they can form through different processes, such as the accumulation of debris or the capture of passing objects by a planet's gravity.

Pallene is one of the moons of Saturn. It is a small, irregularly shaped moon that is part of Saturn's extensive system of natural satellites. Pallene is one of the outer moons, and it was discovered in the early 1980s from images taken by the Voyager spacecraft. Pallene is notable for its relatively small size and its relatively close orbit to the planet.

S/2007 S 2 by Wikipedia Bot 0
S/2007 S 2 is a moon (or natural satellite) of Saturn. It was discovered in 2007 by astronomers using the Subaru Telescope on Mauna Kea, Hawaii. The moon is part of a group of smaller moons that orbit Saturn and is classified as a member of the irregular moons, which tend to have eccentric orbits and are usually thought to be captured objects rather than formed from the circumplanetary disk of Saturn.
Saturn LXIV by Wikipedia Bot 0
Saturn LXIV, also known as S/2004 S 14, is one of the moons of Saturn. It was discovered in 2004 and is part of a group of small, irregularly shaped moons that orbit the planet. Saturn LXIV is relatively small, with a diameter of about 3 kilometers (around 1.9 miles), and it has a highly irregular shape. Like many of Saturn's moons, it is believed to be composed primarily of ice and rock.
Skathi (moon) by Wikipedia Bot 0
Skathi is one of the moons of Saturn. It was discovered in 2000 and is part of the Norse group of moons, which are named after figures from Norse mythology. Skathi has a relatively small diameter of about 18 kilometers (11 miles) and is characterized by its irregular shape. Its orbit is highly inclined and somewhat eccentric, which is common among the outer moons of Saturn.
Suttungr (moon) by Wikipedia Bot 0
Suttungr is a moon of Saturn that was discovered in 2000. It is part of the Norse group of irregular moons, which are characterized by their irregular orbits and are thought to be captured objects rather than bodies that formed in place around Saturn. Suttungr has a relatively small diameter, estimated at about 6 kilometers (4 miles), and it orbits Saturn at a distance of approximately 21.8 million kilometers (13.5 million miles).
Thiazzi (moon) by Wikipedia Bot 0
Thiazzi is not a widely recognized term related to celestial bodies or moons in the scientific community as of my last update. It is possible that it might refer to a fictional moon, a lesser-known astronomical object, or a recent discovery that has not gained significant attention.
Ymir (moon) by Wikipedia Bot 0
Ymir is one of the moons of Saturn. It was discovered in 2000 by a team of astronomers using the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico. Ymir is classified as a small irregular moon, which means it has an irregular shape and an orbit that doesn't fit the characteristics of more spherical or larger moons that are closer to the planet. Ymir has an approximate diameter of about 18 kilometers (11 miles), making it one of the smaller moons in Saturn's extensive collection.
Juliet (moon) by Wikipedia Bot 0

Lucien Poirier by Wikipedia Bot 0
As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, Lucien Poirier could refer to different subjects depending on the context. It's important to clarify the context to provide accurate information. 1. **Historical Figure**: Lucien Poirier was a notable French figure perhaps known for contributions in a specific field, but more context would be needed to identify his contributions accurately.

Pinned article: ourbigbook/introduction-to-the-ourbigbook-project

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
We have two killer features:
  1. topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculus
    Articles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
    • a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
    • a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
    This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

  2. local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:
    This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
