Some asteroids do in fact have moons. The asteroid Ida has a moon, Dactyl, which was found when the space probe Galileo flew past on the way to Jupiter. Two asteroids that are roughly the same mass would be a binary asteroid, while a large disparity in mass means the smaller one is a moon of the larger one.
What else can I help you with?
What are the moons?
Asteroids
Are most of Jupiter's moons asteroids?
jupiters moons are different some have an atmosphere and MOST are asteroids
Are Mars moons asteroids?

Are the moons of mars deformed figures?
The moons of Mars are captured asteroids. They are not spherical, but are irregularly shaped, just like most asteroids.
Do some asteroids have moon?

Does asteroid have any moons?
Yes. Afew asteroids have smaller asteroids orbiting them as moons. The best known case is the asteroid Ida and its moon Dactyl.
How are moon and asteroids alike and different?
Both asteroids and moons can be rocky. An asteroid orbits the Sun while a moon orbits a planet. Mars has two moons (Deimos and Phobos) that are most likely former asteroids.
