    S/2019 S 14 is a natural satellite of Saturn. Its discovery was announced by Edward Ashton and Brett J. Gladman on May 10, 2023 from observations taken between July 1, 2019 and July 9, 2021. [2]

    S/2019 S 14 is about 4 kilometers in diameter, and orbits Saturn at a distance of 18.005 Gm in 902.00 days, at an inclination of 50.1, orbits in prograde direction and eccentricity of 0.072. [2] S/2019 S 14 belongs to the Inuit group, it may be a Siarnaq fragment that broke off long ago, since it shares the same orbital elements and its orbit is quite circular due to of its low eccentricity unlike the other irregular moons.
