what I don’t understand is why all those rocks around saturn don’t combine into a single mass? What’s keeping them apart?

If you are referring to the material in the rings, I think they may have been broken up by Saturn's gravity, or were unable to form into a larger body because of that gravity.

Who knows how many moons Saturn has in all? 20 of the 83 were found in one year, 2019. They all have their own orbits and there is a lot of space out there so they are unlikely to collide. Many of Jupiter's smaller moons are thought to be captured asteroids and the same may be true of some of Saturn's.

Venus is almost as large as the earth and has no satellites. It's unfair for the gas giants to hog most of the moons.

So...
All this time Jupiter has been mooning us and we didn’t even realize it?

What’s really unfair is the Earth has the largest moon in the solar system.

Venus hardest hit.

In other words, scientists, whatever the field, are NOT all knowing. And in the science field, a lot of what they write/say is fraudulent. I read about 50%. Made up, exaggerated, etc. They are not gods.

So, I guess ‘settled science’ isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

Actually Ganymede is larger than the earth's moon, and is the largest moon in the solar system.

The moon is not even the largest satellite relative to its planet--that honor goes to Charon, the largest of Pluto's five known satellites.

There are actually more than 168,000 moons orbiting Jupiter.

We just haven't discovered them all yet.
