Best Answer

The 19-mile-wide asteroid 243 Ida, which orbits the Sun every 4.8 years, has it's own little pet moon Dactyl, which is only about a mile wide. While moons can have moons, these sub-moonsoften don't last long. Many moons that orbit planets are tidally locked, meaning that one side of the moon always faces the planet.
