Jordmånerna

Jordmånerna is a Swedish term that translates to “the Earth moons.” It is not an established term in formal astronomy or geoscience, and there is no standard scientific definition for it. In strict astronomical terms, the Earth has a single permanent natural satellite, commonly known as the Moon.

Because Jordmånerna is not a standard scientific label, its usage is typically literary, poetic, or fictional. In those contexts the phrase may be employed to evoke lunar imagery related to the Earth, to refer to hypothetical or fictional satellites in a world-building setting, or simply as a stylistic title. The expression can also appear in essays or creative works as a metaphor for lunar phenomena or the relationship between Earth and its Moon.

If encountered, the meaning of Jordmånerna should be interpreted from context. In most scientific discussions, references to multiple Earth-associated moons would be considered speculative or fictional, since there is no recognized plurality of natural Earth moons. For factual information about the Moon itself and its effects on Earth, see Moon and Natural satellite.

In summary, Jordmånerna is a nonstandard, context-dependent term primarily found in literary or fictional usage rather than in formal scientific discourse. See also Moon, Natural satellite, Earth.
