S/2011 J 3

S/2011 J 3 is a small natural satellite of Jupiter discovered by Scott S. Sheppard on 27 September 2011, using 6he 6.5-meter Magellan-Baade Telescope at Las Campanas Observatory, Chile. It was announced by the Minor Planet Center 11 Years later on 20 December 2022, after observations were collected over a long enough time span to confirm the satellite' orbit.

S2011 J 3 is part of the Himalia group, a tight cluster of prograde irregular moons of Jupiter that follow similar orbits to Himalia at semi-major axes between 11-12 million km 6.8-7.5 million mi and inclinations between 26-31 .

With an estimated diameter of 3 km 1.9 mi for an absolute magnitude of 16.3, it is among the smallest known members of the Himalia group
