Which planet in the solar system has the most satellites?
Jupiter, with 63 satellites.
What are examples of satellites?
Most moons orbiting the various planets of our solar system are considered "satellites" - more specifically, "natural satellites". In addition, the more general use applies to the various space modules, etc., orbiting around the earth or around other planets of the solar system. As they are the result of human device, they are considered, "artificial Satellites". Sputnik 1, as the very first of these, acts as prime example.
Which object in the solar system has the most satellites?
The sun.
Which planets are rocky in your solar system?
most of inner planets
Do most satellites in the outer solar system have perfect smooth surfaces?
No. No object in the solar system has a perfectly smooth surface. These satellites have craters, mountains, and valleys.
How many new solar system planets are there?
There are 8 planets in the solar system, the most recent is Neptune which was discovered in 1846, not that new.
Do the planets also have moons?
Most of the eight planets in our solar system have at least one natural satellite or moon, some up to 60 or more. Mercury and Venus are the two exceptions, they have no known natural satellites.
What are examples of solar satellites?
In one sense all the planets are solar satellites, that is, they orbit the sun, just as the moon is Earth's satellite. So Mars, Venus, Earth and all the planets are solar satellites.In another sense a solar satellite could be any of Earth's artificial satellites, because most of them use solar panels to generate the electricity they need to keep sending data back to Earth.
Is polaris a solar system?
Polaris is a star. It is likely that it has planets, i.e. that there is a related solar system, since most stars seem to have planets.
Do most planets not have moons?
No. Most planets do. Six of the eight planets in our solar system have at least one moon.
What some facts about the planets of our solar system?
The planets are named from the Sun as , Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. The four inner most planets are all 'Rocky'. The five outer most planets are 'Gas Giants'. All planets , except Mercury, have natural satellites(moons).
Which planet in solar system has lots of moons?
The planet Jupiter, which is the largest planet in the solar system, also has the most moons (which is logical, because the large size of Jupiter means that it also has the strongest gravitational field, and can therefore attract satellites more strongly). All of the four gas giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune) have lots of satellites. The inner planets have fewer satellites.
