Hyperion

Hyperion (Saturn VII) was discovered by Bond and Lassell in 1848. Its orbital motion, highly disrupted by Titan, is very difficult to describe. Its period of revolution is 21 days 8 hours.

Hyperion is the largest non-spherical body in the solar system. Its rotation on its axis is chaotic and impossible to predict.
