How does the moon become earth's satellite?

yes because satellite and moon are just the same..

the earth's natural satellite is called the Moon The moon is called the moon, but the correct term for what it is, is a natural satellite, Earths only, our solar system's 5th largest.

The Earth's only satellite is the Moon.

The moon is the earth's only natural satellite.

Natural Satellite.

Earth's closest and only natural satellite is the Moon.

The Moon is the Earth's only natural satellite.

The Earths largest and only natural satellite is the Moon.

the earths satelite is called the moon but there are many different names

satellites are things that orbit other things in space, for example the moon orbits the earth and is therefore the earth's satellite

the moon is the earths own satellite any other satellite that we have is man made is its not a true satellite on the earth

the moon orbits the earth and one definition of a satellite is "a natural body that revolves around a planet"

The moon is the earths only natural satellite

no, the moon is the Earths natural satellite, the moon is in orbit around the Earth. The whole Earth/Moon system is then in orbit around the sun.

a moon is a natural satellite. A satellite is something that orbits a planet. In the case of the earths moon this is a natural satellite, it was created by nature. In terms of satellited which orbit the earth, these are man made satellites and follow a direct path set by a human.

It's always been a satellite, it didn't "become" one.

The first satellite of Earth is the Moon. The first ARTIFICIAL satellite of the Earth was Sputnik, launched by the Soviet Union in 1957.

It is the moon.

The one and only true God

The Earth's moon is a satellite. There's a theory that say the Earth's moon is comprised of part of the Earth itself.

The Moon is the Earth's only natural satellite. There are several thousand artificial satellites in orbit around the Earth.

The Moon is a naturally created object. The word 'satellite' means ' an object or entity associated with and close to a larger object or entity'. The Moon is close to the Earth and orbits around the Earth.

Earth's only natural satellite is the moon. We call it The Moon. In Italian, Moon is Luna, so some people call it Luna.

No, geostationary means that it stays above the same point on the earths surface.

A Moon (In capitals) refers to our Moon - Earths natural satellite. Other moons exist in the Solar System and they orbit around other planets. Definition: Any substantially sized natural satellite of a planet.

No, the moon is a natural satellite (Could of been its own planet if it did not get caught up in the Earths gravitational pull) Our sun is a star.

The Moon, also called Luna. That big shiny thing in the sky at night.

The Moon is a satellite. The Moon is a satellite. The Moon is a satellite. The Moon is a satellite.

nither it is a natural satellite held in orbit by the earths gravity. Without it we would have no tides.

the magnetic properties of moon cause behavior changes in the earth by being a distraction satellite. the tidal concentration of earths water bodies also diverts in moon moon episodes.

At 5km up the Satellite would still be in the earths atmosphere and would also be subject to gravity. Put simply it would just fall back down. Space starts at about 100km up or 62 miles. The moon also has 1/6ths of Earths gravity and at 5km up there would be little if any pull from the moon.

The moon is the Earth's only natural satellite. It has now water or atmosphere, and it's surface is littered with craters caused by impacts from space debris.

You could say that the Moon is the Earth's "companion". As planet/satellite systems go, the Moon is ENORMOUS compared to other moons orbiting other planets.

That's simply called "artificial satellite" or just "satellite". Artificial is used to distinguish man made satellites from earths natural satellite, the moon. The space lab is an artificial satellite. GPS satellites are artificial. There are also many communications satellites.

Because the moon naturally revolves around the Earth and things that revolve around each other are called satellites (ex. the planets revolving around the sun) so therefore the name "Natural Satellite".

The Moon is Earth's only significant natural satellite. There may be very small bodies orbiting Earth as well... by "very small" I mean "a few meters or less". These would be hard to detect. If you're talking about objects like Cruithne, it's not really a satellite of Earth.

A moon is a satellite but a satellite doesn't mean that it'll be a moon.

Earth has one natural satellite. It's formal name is "Luna", but it is more commonly referred to (in English) as "The Moon".

No, it's a space telescope. In the context of spaceflight, a satellite is some object that has been placed into orbit by humans. Such objects are sometimes called artificial satellites to distinguish them from earths natural satellite the moon. SO.... the hubble space telescope could be called a satellite.

The moon was created when another planet slammed into Earth - the Earths gravity captured the particles and the formed to become our moon.

The Moon is a moon. A natural satellite of the Earth.

no the moon is a satellite of the earth

a satellite of a satellite

Assuming no typo on your part regarding the "A" satellite, it would be that the moon was the first satellite orbiting earth. If you meant "why is the moon known as a satellite", it's because it is a satellite. Anything that orbits is a satellite.

In a way yes. But the correct answer is no. The Moon is a Satellite of the Earth, but the Earth is a satellite of the sun , so in a way the moon is a satellite of the sun but is not classed as such

The name for a natural satellite of a planet is called "a moon". A moon is a natural satellite, an object that orbits around a planet that was formed naturally. If there was any redefining of the definition of a planet, it might be possible for Pluto to become a binary dwarf planet or Earth to become a binary planet. The barycenter for Pluto-Charon is outside both objects. and Earth's Moon is the largest by…

Moon is the earths only satellite, it also helps in giving the earth both low and high tides as well.. It also gives people light at night. And the Muslims have the star in their moon each year of Ramadan.

The moon IS a satellite - a celestrial body that orbits a planet. Natural satellite is usually synonymous with moon.

moon is to satellite as earth is to planet

The Moon is a satellite of Earth.
