Who discovered artificial satellite?

The Moon is the natural satellite of the Earth, so the person who discovered it was probably Ugghhh, the First Caveman. Artificial satellites weren't developed until the 1950's, and so the "discoverer" was one of the Soviet engineers who launched the first Sputnik, the first artificial satellite of the Earth. Other planets have their own satellites. Galileo is credited as discovering the four largest satellites of Jupiter in January, 1610, when he pointed his new telescope at Jupiter.

What is the earth's biggest satellite?

If you are referring to artificial satellites (which I think you are) it has to be the ISS (International Space Station)Only one natural satellite of the Earth is known ... the one known as "The Moon".Being the only one, it's also the largest.It's also far larger than any of the artificial satellites, so it's the largest satellite of Earth, period.The largest artificial satellite of Earth currently is the International Space Station, which I believe is also the largest artificial satellite of Earth ever.

Currently there are only two planets with satellites orbiting them, Mars (a few of them) and Saturn (Cassini). All the planets excluding Uranus and Neptune have had satellites orbiting them at some point.
