Statements about the motion of planetary satellites?
Planetary satellites typically orbit their parent planet in predetermined paths. These orbits can be circular or elliptical. The motion of planetary satellites is governed by the gravitational pull of the planet they orbit.
Which planet has the most planetary satellites?
If by planetary satellites you mean Moons, that would be Jupiter with at least 63 confirmed moons - possibly more!
What are the name of three satellites not artificial ones?
3 Planetary Satellites are; The Moon, Io, Titan. 3 Satellites of the Sun are; Earth, Mars, Jupiter.
What do you call satellites that orbit various planets?
Those are called planetary satellites or natural satellites. Each planet has its own set of natural satellites that orbit around it.
Why can you see other planets and planetary satellites?
the brightest and the sixth biggest planet
What are the natural satellites of Mars?
Phobos and Diemos. Both are very small, as planetary satellites go, and both are suspected of being captured asteroids.
How many satellites are there in your solar system according to 2010 research?
As of the end of 2010, planetary astronomers have documented about 245 known satellites of the planets in the solar system.
What object in space do not directly orbit the sun?
Planetary satellites, like the moon; other stars, galaxies.
What is the process by which planets and other satellites are formed from planetary particles of gas and dust that collide and stick together?
Inertia
What does the white spheres near the planets stand for?
The white spheres near the planets typically represent the number of moons or satellites orbiting that planet in a specific system. They provide a visual representation of the satellites that are part of the planetary system.
What is a shepherd satellite?
Shepherd Satellite is referring to a small moon that orbits closely to a planetary ring. Shepherd satellites can be seen mostly in Saturn.
Why do astronomers call certain moons sheperd satellites?
These moons orbit close to planetary rings, and with their gravity, prevent the rings from dispersing, like shepherds.
