Earth has as many as 3,000 artificial satellites currently in orbit.
Saturn and Jupiter have 62 and 64 moons with confirmed orbits respectively.
There could be countless exoplanets (extrasolar planets; planets outside the solar system) that possess a greater number of natural satellites, but no extrasolar moons have yet been detected.
a natural satellite is not necessarily a piece of technology. If you consider the way a mechanical satellite orbits a planet, you would recognize that it uses the planets gravity to travel at a constant velocity. therefore any moon can be considered as a satellite, such as the Earth's moon or any of Saturn's.
The right answer is Jupiter with 63, however the technical answer could be Saturn as every one of the particles that make up Saturns Rings are technically concidered natural satellites.
Jupiter has the most moons: 63!
saturn easy answer
Jupiter
Jupiter has 67. Saturn is not far behind with 62.
Earth's largest natural satellite is the Moon. The Solar System's (and the largest known so far) is Ganymede also with the highest mass of any of them, moon of Jupiter. It's Larger than Mercury! This is followed in a close second by Titan with the thickest atmosphere and methane rainfall one of Saturn's moons, and Callisto Jupiter's moon is in third with possibly a liquid ocean beneath its surface. Io Jupiter's moon is fourth with its active volcanoes and stronger gravity than any of them. Earth's moon steals the fifth largest designation its gravity is just behind Io.
The gas giants, most notably Pluto and Saturn.
Jupiter has the most number of moons in the Solar system with 63 moons (as of February 2011).
With 63 moons, Jupiter is the planet which has the highest number of moons. There could be more to be discovered though on any of the four gas giants that currently have not been seen.

jupiter has the maximum number of satellites.... of almost 63 moons
You left out the "following" list, but Mercury and Venus have none, and Earth has only one.
Check on the Dictionary ... A moonlet is a small natural Satellite as one of a number of natural satellites thought to be embedded in the ring system of Saturn.
A great number of artificial satellites. At any given time, the Earth may have one or more small natural satellites (temporarily captured asteroids) as well.
The large size, the number of natural satellites, and the lack of a solid surface.

Neptune has 13 natural satellites (or moons).
because the natural number is infinite so there is no greatest natural number
Venus has no natural satellites.
Jupiter :]
It does not.
In our Solar System, Planet Mercury and Planet Venus have no (0) satellites at all. No satellites orbit them. But if you are talking about planets with satellites and with the fewest moons, it is the Earth. Earth has only one natural satellite, THE MOON.
Two natural satellites. Phobos and Deimos. There is as well three manmade satellites: Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, 2001: Mars Odyssey and Mars Express.
No. The earth has one natural satellite ... the moon ... and any number of other satellites whose primary purpose is not scientific (e.g. communication satellites).
Uranus has a number of natural satellites (moons). Anything else you've heard is a hoax.
Of the eight planets in our solar system, the first two (Mercury and Venus) have no natural satellites. The dwarf planets Pluto and Eris have six moons between them. There is no relationship between the number of moons an object has and whether or not it is a planet. Planets may have no moons, while objects that are not planets may have multiple moons. In general, the larger the planet, the more moons it tends to have.
