'''Hyperion (Saturn VII)''' is the eighth largest moon of [[Saturn]] and was the first moon discovered that is not round. It was discovered by [[w:William Cranch Bond|William Cranch Bond]] et.al. in September 1848, and was named after a [[w:Titans|Titan]] in [[w:Greek mythology|Greek mythology]].
 
 
 
Hyperion is the second largest moon that is non-round after [[Proteus]] and is characterized by its 'spongy' appearance. Its rotation is very chaotic and quite unpredicatble. Hyperion is in a 3:4 orbital resonance with [[Titan]].
