Geirrod (Saturn LXVI), provisionally known as S/2004 S 38, is a natural satellite of Saturn. Its discovery was announced by Scott S. Sheppard, David C. Jewitt, and Jan Kleyna on October 8, 2019 from observations taken between December 12, 2004 and March 22, 2007.[3] It was given its permanent designation in August 2021.[4] On 24 August 2022, it was officially named after Geirröðr, a jötunn from Norse mythology.[5] He is an enemy of Thor and is killed by him.[6]
