Taygete Template:IPAc-en, also known as Template:Nowrap, is a retrograde irregular satellite of Jupiter. It was discovered by a team of astronomers from the University of Hawaii led by Scott S. Sheppard, in 2000, and given the temporary designation Template:Nowrap.<ref name="IAUC7555">IAUC 7555: Satellites of Jupiter Template:Webarchive 2001 January 5 (discovery)</ref><ref name="MPEC-2001-A29">MPEC 2001-A29: S/2000 J 7, S/2000 J 8, S/2000 J 9, S/2000 J 10, S/2000 J 11 2001 January 15 (discovery and ephemeris)</ref><ref>MPEC 2001-T59: S/2000 J 8, S/2000 J 9, S/2000 J 10 2001 October 15 (revised ephemeris)</ref>

Taygete is about 5 kilometres in diameter, and orbits Jupiter at an average distance of 22,439,000 km in 691.62 days, at an inclination of 165° to the ecliptic (163° to Jupiter's equator), in a retrograde direction and with an eccentricity of 0.3678.

It was named in October 2002<ref>IAUC 7998: Satellites of Jupiter 2002 October 22 (naming the moon)</ref> after Taygete, one of the Pleiades, daughter of the Titan Atlas and mother of Lacedaemon by Zeus (Jupiter).

It belongs to the Carme group, made up of irregular retrograde moons orbiting Jupiter at a distance ranging between 23 and 24 Gm and at an inclination of about 165°. Like Carme but unlike Kalyke, it is light red in color (B−V=0.56, V−R=0.52).<ref name="Grav2003">Template:Cite journal</ref>
