On the contrary! A star has planets, which circulate it. And planets have moons. Stars do not circle planets.


Are stars moons?

No, stars and moons are two different astronomical bodies. Stars are massive bodies that emit light and produce energy through nuclear fusion, while moons are natural satellites that orbit planets. Moons do not produce their own light but reflect light from the Sun.


How is a moon different from a planet?

Planets orbit stars, moons orbit planets. That is the only difference.

Moons orbit planets. Planets orbit stars. Some stars orbit other stars, or orbit their mutual center of gravity. Stars orbit the center of the galaxy. Galaxies may orbit the center of the "galactic group".


What are solid objects that orbit the planets?

How are moons and planets alike?

Most but not all larger MOONS (bodies that orbit planets, moons, or asteroids) accreted in the same way that PLANETS did, assuming a variable density and a nearly spherical shape. Very large moons such as Titan have many of the characteristics of planets: vulcanism, atmospheres, and weather. Generally speaking, moons orbit planets in the same way that planets orbit stars.


Do stars orbit planets or planets orbit stars?

Planets orbit stars.


In what ways are the moons stars and planets interrelated?

Moons are natural satellites that orbit planets, planets orbit stars like our Sun, and stars are part of galaxies that contain planets and moons. Moons are gravitationally bound to planets while planets are gravitationally bound to stars. All three are part of the same interconnected celestial system.


Does the moon revolve round the planets?

Moons orbit planets Or rather moons and planets orbit their barycenter.
