Astronomers have found all the outer planets moons explain?
Sandechr001
Probably not. Uranus and Neptune are significantly farther away than Jupiter and Saturn and many of their moons may be rather small and possibly dark-colored, which would make them hard to see from Earth. The only probe to visit the planets was Voyager 2 in 1986 and 1989 respectively. The probe discovered 11 previously unknown moons around Uranus and 6 around Neptune, and both have had more moons discovered since.

Astronomers have found all the moons of the outer planets?
Astronomer have found many of the major moons of the outer planets, which are Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, and Neptune. However, they have not found all the possible moons associated with each of these planets. For example Jupiter has 50 known moons, and Saturn has 53 moons that are known so far.
Who studies the stars moons and planets?
Astronomers.
Astronomers have found all of the moons of the outer planets?
Its unlikely that all of the moons of the other planets have been found, but certainly all of the major moons have now been discovered. Some of Saturns named moons are only a few km across, so there are likely to be some more moons of this sort of size that have yet to be officially recognised.
Where can moons be found?
They are found in Space close to there planets
Why planets are called planets?
Because the ancient Greek astronomers were one of the first astronomers to discover the planets. As they looked at the planets over time they moved into different places. The planets seemed o orbit the Sun so the Greek astronomers called them planets, which meant :wanderers.

What planets have only two moons?
Earth is the only planet with one moon. Pluto use to be classified as a planet. It had only one discovered moon for a while, but astronomers have since found more moons belonging to Pluto.
Does every palnet have a moon?
Possibly not. Although astronomers have observed and documented two moons of Pluto, and more than 60 moons of Jupiter, no moons of Mercury or Venus have been found yet, even though those planets are the two that are closest to earth.
