What else can I help you with?
Are moons and satellites the same thing?
In astronomy, the term "moon" specifically refers to a natural satellite that orbits a planet, like Earth's moon. Satellites, on the other hand, can refer to both natural moons and artificial objects placed into orbit around planets. So, while all moons are satellites, not all satellites are moons.
Which planet has 21 satellites?
I don't know of any planet with exactly 21 known moons. The best answer is probably "Uranus" with 27 moons (natural satellites).
