S/2007 S 5 is a natural satellite of Saturn. Its discovery was announced by Scott S. Sheppard, David C. Jewitt, Jan Kleyna, Edward Ashton, Brett J. Gladman, Jean-Marc Petit and Mike Alexandersen on May 3, 2023 from observations taken between January 5, 2005 and July 9, 2021.[2]
S/2007 S 5 is about 4 kilometers in diameter, and orbits Saturn at a distance of 15.836 Gm in 746.88 days, at an inclination of 158.4, orbits in retrograde direction and eccentricity of 0.104.[1] S/2007 S 5 belongs to the Norse group and its orbit is quite circular due to of its low eccentricity unlike the other irregular moons.[3]
