The planet Earth has precisely one natural satellite, the moon, also known as luna. It also has numerous artificial satellites that human beings have placed into orbit. None of them qualify as moons. only one

Within our solar system, it seems a fairly steady rule that the larger a planet is, the more satellites it winds up with, mostly because the larger planets have more gravity, and can attract - ad gravitationally bind - more objects into orbit around them.

The central body that shapes Jupiter's orbit is the sun. Jupiter doesn't orbit

earth's moon, and is hardly aware that it exists.

Jupiter orbits the sun every 11.86 [earth] years, at an average distance

from the sun of 483.8 million miles.

Many planets have moons, many do not. To list all is considerably time consuming, so you are advised to see the related links for links to and details of planets which (are suspected to) have moons or natural satellites.

This question is awkwardly worded. The moon orbits the earth every 27.3 days. The lunar month is about 29 days long. The moon itself contains no orbits. An orbit is a revolution about another body.

The moon orbits the earth, the earth/moon system orbits the sun (every 365.24 days). The sun orbits the Milky Way Galaxy ever 220 million years or so. The galaxy sort of orbits about the local group--a cosmic dance of galaxies, as our local group speeds towards a massive collection of galaxies known as "The Great Attractor." There doesn't really seem to be higher scales of orbits beyond that. All the galaxies are moving apart with the expansion of intergalactic space.

The planets with multiple moons are Mars (2), Jupiter (67), Saturn (62), Uranus (27), and Neptune (14). Worth mentioning is Pluto, which is no longer a planet, with five moons. Three of those moons were discovered before it lost planetary status.
Mars (2), Jupiter (67), Saturn (62), Uranus (27), Neptune (14).

The only solar system that we know for certain contains ANY moons is ours.
