Template:Nowrap is a natural satellite of Jupiter. It was discovered by a team of astronomers from the University of Hawaii led by Scott S. Sheppard et al. in 2004 from pictures taken in 2003.<ref>IAUC 8281: S/2003 J 23 2004 February 4 (discovery)</ref><ref name="MPEC-2004-B81">MPEC 2004-B81: S/2003 J 23 2004 January 31 (discovery and ephemeris)</ref>

Template:Nowrap is about 2 kilometres in diameter, and orbits Jupiter at an average distance of 24,700 Mm in about 792 days, at an inclination of 146° to the ecliptic, in a retrograde direction and with an eccentricity of 0.321.

It belongs to the Pasiphae group, irregular retrograde moons orbiting Jupiter at distances ranging between 22.8 and 24.1 Gm, and with inclinations ranging between 144.5° and 158.3°.
