By definition planets orbit a star and satellites orbit a planet. Therefore there are no satellite planets.


When planets orbit a star?

When don't they? If a planet is in orbit around a star, it is in continual orbit. Orbital periods (the lengths of time it takes different planets to complete one orbit) are different from planet to planet, and are related to the distances between the planets and their stars.
