The moon IS a satellite that orbits earth
A satellite is an object which orbits a larger body. For example, the Moon orbits the Earth, and the Earth orbits the Sun. The Moon is a satellite of the Earth and the Earth is a Satellite of the Sun.
It depends on if your talking about Earth's moon (aka OUR moon) or just a moon in general. If your talking about OUR moon, then it is Earth's only natural satellite (satellite means an object that orbits something), and that means that it is the only non-manmade object orbiting Earth. So that makes the moon a natural satellite!

The Moon, or Luna.
The Moon, or Luna.
If the Moon is to a satellite, then Earth is to a planet. The Moon is a natural satellite orbiting Earth, just like artificial satellites orbit Earth. Similarly, planets are natural satellites orbiting stars, like Earth orbits the Sun.
this is because, the moon orbits the earth and goes around is.
A satellite is any object that is in orbit around another object. The moon is a natural satellite of the Earth because it orbits around the Earth.
