Analysis
Saturn heads the table on 146, ahead of Jupiter (95) and Uranus (28) in Confirmed Natural Moons in 2025. 146 separates the highest figure (146) from the lowest (0) in Confirmed Natural Moons. First and second are separated by 51, so the leader sits inside the field rather than apart from it. Only 2 of the 8 reach even half the leader's figure (73 or more).
