The CREATOR gets NO Credit.....all the moons and planets are named for Pagan gods.
This isn't to make a big deal about it--rather to illustrate that the World really is Hostile towards the Creator-in more ways than one...
But his citizens hated him,
and sent a message after him, saying,
We will not have this man to reign over us.
Luke 19:14
"Meet the new moons of Jupiter.
After a public contest, five newly discovered Jovian satellites now have official astronomical names, the International Astronomical Union announced August 26.
Planetary scientist Scott Sheppard of the Carnegie Institution for Science in Washington, D.C., reported the discovery of the moons in July 2018, along with seven others.
The team solicited name suggestions for the moons on Twitter. There were some rules, most notably that Jupiter’s 79 known moons must all be named for descendants or consorts of the god Jupiter from Roman mythology, or Zeus in Greek myths.
Here are the winners:
Pandia: A daughter of Zeus and the moon goddess Selene, Pandia is the goddess of the full moon.
Ersa: Sister of Pandia, Ersa is the goddess of dew. Several people suggested this name.
Eirene: The goddess of peace, Eirene is the daughter of Zeus and Themis, a Greek Titaness who personifies divine order, justice and law.
Philophrosyne: A granddaughter of Zeus, Philophrosyne is the spirit of welcome and kindness.
Eupheme: Sister of Philophrosyne, Eupheme is the spirit of praise and good omen."
