What else can I help you with?
Why are the planets considered satellites?
Planets are not considered satellites, but rather celestial bodies that orbit around stars, like our Sun. Satellites are objects that orbit larger celestial bodies, such as planets orbiting around stars or moons orbiting around planets.
What is a group of stars and the planets and other objects orbiting around it?
Solar system
What planets are there around the Earth?
There are no planets orbiting Earth.
Is our sun the only star that has planets orbiting around it?
No. Other stars have been found to have planets orbiting them.
What objects use gravitational energy?
Objects like planets, stars, and galaxies use gravitational energy to hold themselves together and maintain their positions in space. This energy is also utilized by objects that are in motion due to gravity, such as satellites orbiting around a planet or a moon orbiting around a planet.
What is a moon and how does it move around the solar system?
Moons are approximately spherical objects which orbit planets and are smaller than the planets that they orbit, although they are still relatively large objects (so an orbiting dust particle does not qualify as a moon). Since moons orbit planets, their motion around the solar system is controlled by the planets that they orbit; planets orbit the sun, and planets take their moons with them.
What is the shape of the planets orbiting around the sun?
An ellipse.
Which planet has the most suns orbiting around it?
Planets do not have suns orbiting around them. Suns have planets orbiting around them. The planet in our solar system with the highest number of discovered moons orbiting around it is Jupiter, with over 100.
What are the suns satellites?
A satellite is an object that orbits a planet. The Sun is a star so it does not have satellites. Actually a satellite is anything that orbits another. So the planets and asteriods are the sun's satellites.
What is a force of attraction that occurs between objects due to their mass?
Gravity is the force of attraction that occurs between objects due to their mass. It is responsible for keeping objects in the universe bound together, such as planets orbiting around a star.
Does Planet Earth have small planets around it?
No. There are no planets orbiting Earth.The Moon is not a planet.
How do you xxplain What is solar system?
Solar relates to the sun. The sun is a star. A solar system is a star that has planets and other celestial objects orbiting around it in an ordered manner.
