What are natural or artifial bodies that orbit larger celestial bodies such as planets?
These are called satellites. A lot of planets have natural satellites called moons, which are in orbit around the planet. An artificial satellite is one that is put there by man, it orbits the planet in a similar way.
How are planets different from satellites?
simple! planets are huge or normally bigger than satellites in terms of mass, area and size. planets normally have a atmosphere like the earth. planets revolve around the sun whereas satellites revolve around the planet. both of them are non luminous object which means they reflect the light from the sun. satellites are usually fragments of a planet when it was forming.
What does Jupiter have in common with the sun that the terrestrial planets don't?
Jupiter consists of hydrogen and helium (primarily) like the Sun. It has a host of satellites in orbit around its equatorial plane. The sun has natural satellites (planets) that orbit its equatorial plane.
What do you call the bodies either natural or artificial the orbit a planet or a moon?
Bodies that orbit planets or moons are called satellites.
What is the name of objects that revolve around planets?
Objects that are in orbit around planets are commonly called satellites
How are the planets sizes related to the number of natural satellites in orbit around them?
6
What orbit the planets?
The orbit of each planet it the path it takes as it rotates round the Sun under the influence of the force of gravity. Every planet has a separate orbit and the orbits all follow Kepler's three laws of planetary motion.
What is a natural body that revolves around a planet called?
A moon or satellite. what are the natural satellites which revolve around planets

What is the differences between the moon and satellites?
The word Moon is a name given to the natural satellite in orbit around the Earth. We attribute this name to most objects large enough to see in orbit around other planets. In this way Moons and Natural Satellites are one in the same. Artifical Satellites are what we put into orbit around the earth IE GPS Satellites, but are man made.

What does the sun's gravitational pull keep in orbit?
Planets, asteroids, meteors, comets, moons (which are also in orbit around their respective planets), dust particles, interplanetary gas.
What planets are inside of Earth's orbit?
You cannot have planets orbiting planets. Planets orbit suns. Only satellites orbit planets. In the case of planet Earth, the moon is the only natural satellite.
What is the name of objects that revolve around planets?
