Thelxinoe

Thyone

Originally called S/2001 J2, Thyone was named for the mother (originally named Semele) of Dionysos by Zeus, the Greek equivalent of the Roman god Jupiter. Her story is similar to that of Lysithea, namesake of another Jovian moon: Zeus promised to do whatever she asked after he impregnated her, and Hera (Zeus' wife and sister) tricked her into asking Zeus to come to her in the same way he appeared before Hera. So Zeus presented himself accompanied by lightning and thunder, which literally scared Thyone to death. Zeus sewed her fetus into his own thigh, so he could carry the child to term. At the appropriate time, Zeus undid the stitches and out popped Dionysus

Thyone was discovered on Dec. 11, 2001, by Scott S. Sheppard, David C. Jewitt and Jan T. Kleyna at the Mauna Kea Observatory in Hawaii


S/2003 J 2

Ananke

Ananke was named for the mother of Adrastea by Zeus, the Greek equivalent of the Roman god Jupiter. In other accounts, Adrastea is described as a nymph of Crete who was one of the nursemaids of the infant Zeus. Ananke is the personification of fate or necessity in ancient Greek literature, who rewards or punishes people for their deeds

Ananke was discovered on Sept. 28, 1951 by Seth Barnes Nicholson in California
