Jupiter has a whole lot of moons including four big ones discovered by Galileo in the 16th century. He was the first one to use a telescope to study Jupiter. Other than those four, all the others are small and were discovered when spacecraft were sent to Jupiter in the 1970s.
Jupiter is the planet with Galilean moons orbiting it. These four large moons were discovered by Galileo Galilei in the early 17th century and are named Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto.
There are no moons in Jupiter. Jupiter does have 63 confirmed that are in a stable orbit around the planet though. There could well be more than this though, which have yet to be discovered.Jupiter have 64 moons.

Jupiter. The "Galilean" moons are the four largest moons, which are so large that Galileo was able to see them orbiting Jupiter even with his relatively modest telescope.
As of early 2016, there are 67.
In our solar system, the dwarf planets Pluto and Charon orbit each other around a common center of gravity located in the empty space between them. As the only binary planets in our solar system, that makes Pluto and Charon share the title as having the most planets orbiting another planet. Planet like objects that orbit planets, without them orbiting each other, are called moons. The title for the planet with most moons, is passed back and forth between Jupiter and Saturn, as new (to us) and ever smaller moons are discovered. Currently, Jupiter holds the title with 63 moons.
