How do you explain the meaning of the term satellite?
A satellite can be natural or artificial. An artificial satellite is placed in orbit around the earth, moon, or another planet in order to collect information or for communication. A natural satellite is a celestial body orbiting the earth or another planet.
Does a satellite circle the Earth or does Earth circle a satellite?
Technically, the Earth and any satellite both circle their mutual center of mass. Just like the balancing of an adult and a child on a see-saw, since the earth's mass is several times the mass of the satellite, their common center of mass is closer to the earth's center than it is to the satellite. Even in the case of the moon, the pair's common center of mass is inside the earth. In the case of any man-made artificial satellite, the mass ratio is several gazillion, and the common center of mass can't be more than a hair's breadth from the earth's center. So for any satellite, including the moon, it looks exactly as if the satellite is circling the earth.
