What else can I help you with?
Why are moons and planets different?
Planets are bodies that orbit a central star (in our case, the Sun), and moons are smaller bodies that orbit planets.
What are solid objects that orbit the planets?
Solid objects that can orbit planets are called moons. Moons are natural satellites that orbit around planets in a similar way that planets orbit around stars. Moons can range in size from small rocky bodies to larger worlds with their own atmospheres.
What are small bodies that orbit planets called?
Satellites Moons Asteroids depending on the nature of the question
Is a moon considered a planet?
No, a moon is not considered a planet. Moons are natural satellites that orbit planets. Planets are celestial bodies that orbit a star and do not orbit other celestial bodies.
What Planets are major bodies that orbit?
The sun.
What are the differences between planets and comets?
Comets are small solar system bodies that orbit around the Sun. They are not planets because NASA said so.
In a geocentric theory which body do the other planets orbit?
The other planets - and all other bodies - orbit the earth.
What do you call the bodies either natural or artificial the orbit a planet or a moon?
Bodies that orbit planets or moons are called satellites.
What are the major bodies that orbit a star?
The major bodies that orbit a star like our Sun are planets, moons, asteroids, and comets. These objects are held in orbit by the star's gravitational pull and follow distinct paths around the star.
What two other common names of the bodies?
The two other common names for celestial bodies are planets and moons. Planets are large objects that orbit around stars, while moons are natural satellites that orbit around planets.
What are the rocky bodies that orbit between the inner and outer planets?
These rocky bodies are called "Asteroids".
What is a collection of large and small bodies that orbit your central star?
A collection of large and small bodies that orbit a central star is known as a solar system. This system typically includes planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and other celestial objects, all bound by gravitational forces. The central star, often a sun, provides the energy necessary for sustaining life on planets and influences the orbits of the surrounding bodies.
