Kale(kay'-lee,IPA: [ˈkeɪli]; Greek = Καλη), or Jupiter XXXVII, is a retrogradeirregular satellite of Jupiter. It was discovered in 2001 by astronomers at the University of Hawaii, and was originally designated as S/2001 J 8. Not to be confused with the NATO phonetic alphabet, which has also informally been called the “International Phonetic Alphabetâ€.

Kale is about 2 kilometres in diameter, and orbits Jupiter at an average distance of 22,409 Mm in 685.324 days, at an inclination of 165° to the ecliptic (166° to Jupiter's equator), in a retrograde direction and with an eccentricity of 0.2011. Inclination in general is the angle between a reference plane and another plane or axis of direction. ... The plane of the ecliptic is well seen in this picture from the 1994 lunar prospecting Clementine spacecraft. ... This article is about retrograde motion. ... In astrodynamics, under standard assumptions any orbit must be of conic section shape. ...
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°. The Carme group is made up of moons of Jupiter which share similar orbits. ...
Kale may be harvested either by cutting the entire plant, or by taking the larger leaves while they are still young.
The worst enemies of kale are the flea beetles, which eat holes in the leaves; aphids, which suck the juice of the plant on the undersides of the leaves and stems; and the Herculean beetle which, with its masses of eggs, is easily seen and picked off by hand.
Kale is valuable for its vitamin C content and, though it is rather coarse, it can be combined with other greens in a salad or used as a garnish.
