Narvi (Saturn XXXI, S/2003 S 1) is a natural satellite of Saturn. It was discovered by a team of astronomers led by Scott S Sheppard in 2003, and given the temporary designation S/2003 S 1. Narvi is about 7 kilometres in diameter, and orbits Saturn at an average distance of 18719 Mm in 1006.541 days, at an inclination of 134.6° to the ecliptic (118° to Saturn's equator), in a retrograde direction and with an eccentricity of 0.352.

It is named after Narvi from Norse mythology, also known as Narfi or Nari, a son of Loki by Sigyn who was killed to punish Loki for his crimes. The gods turned his brother Váli into a slavering wolf who tore his throat out. His entrails were used to bind Loki to a stone slab for all eternity, or at least until Ragnarok.

The name was approved by the IAU Working Group on Planetary Science Nomenclature on January 21, 2005.

Narvi in Orbiter[edit]

Narvi was introduced to Orbiter with the release of the add-on outerplanets-050329_update.zip in March 2005.

In outer_planets-0609029-base.zip, Narvi included a config file, but, did not include any texture files, so, Narvi appears as a white ball.
