the forse of gravity keeps it floating in space like the moon orbits our planet
It is not gravity because there is no gravity in space, only some on certain planets, deffiantly on earth. It is done by the strength from other planets the sun for instance. Heat waves. Some of the gravity in space does help keep the planets and satellites in orbit.
A planet in an orbit greater than any of the others.An object in orbit around a single planet is a moon or satellite of that planet.
This is called "orbit".
An artificial satellite or a moon (a natural satellite)
Satellite
No, a moon is a natuaral satellite and would always be in orbit around a planet. If it did'nt orbit the planet it would fall into the planet.

Earth
The Satellite Atlas orbits the planet Saturn.
There is only one main force acting on a satellite when it is in orbit, and that is the gravitational force.
