The moon is earth's only natural satellite, meaning it is the only natural orbject that has a fixed orbit around earth. We now have thousands and thousands of man-made satellites orbiting earth an a few orbiting the sun.
a satellite revolves around a planet. The moon revolves around the earth.
There are 2 types of satellite:
- Artificial satellites like the Hubble telescope and any orbiting spacecraft
- Naturally formed satellites like the moons orbiting several of the planets in our solar system
Some argue that the earth-moon system is really a binary planet system. One reason the argument is appealing is that of all the moons in the solar system, ours is the largest in proportion to its host planet (not in absolute size). On the other hand, the earth-moon barycenter, the center of gravity of the earth and moon taken together, is within the body of earth. This fact and many dissimilarities between the earth and moon suggest that the moon really is a satillite, and a moon of the earth rather than a companion planet.
