What is the number of Neptune's natural satellites?

Neptune has 13 natural satellites (or moons).


Why does Neptune have 13 satellites even though it is not orbited by human made objects?

Well, call me a scientist, satellites are sometimes known as ANYTHING that can orbit a rock, star or planet. So, Neptune does have eleven (or more, who knows) moons. Satellites are usually known as the man-made space telescopes, but they can be anything that orbits. Here, let me explain: Planets: Mercury, Earth, Venus... (you know) Stars: The sun Satellites: The moon, Hubble telescope, and other of Earths satellites

Why does Neptune has eleven satellites even when no one is there?

A natural body that rotates around a planet is a satellite, as in a moon. Man made satellites (artificial satellites) are made mostly of metal and rotate around earth looking at weather patterns or orbiting other planets for information. When they say Neptune has eleven satellites, they mean moons orbiting the planet, not man made ones. There doesn't have to be anyone there for there to be satellites of both kinds there.

Do all planets have an artificial satellites?

No. There are no artificial satellites orbiting Mercury, Uranus, or Neptune. Mercury has had artificial satellites in the past that were deliberately deorbited when their missions ended. The space probe Voyager 2 flew by Uranus and Neptune, but since it never orbited them, it cannot be considered a satellite. Similarly, New Horizons flew by Pluto, which is no longer considered a planet. The one space probe orbiting Saturn, named Cassini, will be deorbited in September 2017.
