Planets are the original satelites; man-made satelites are named this because they are not planetary satelites. Satelites = "revolve around" A hospital may have satelite clinics around town; a large business or store or bank may have satelite offices or branches
A satellite is an object that orbits a larger object. The moon is a natural Satellite that orbits the earth. the ISS is an artificial satellite. Therefore the planets are Satellites orbiting the sun.
Moons are considered satellites, hence several planets in our solar system have satellites: Neptune, Earth, Mars, Saturn, Uranus & Jupiter.
The asteroid belt. Mars, Earth, Venus and Mercury are all considered "inner" planets. The gas giants (and their satellites) are the outer solar system.
The only planets in our solar system that do not have natural satellites are Mercury and Venus.
Of the eight true planets in the Solar System, only Mercury and Venus are lacking natural satellites.
No satellites are known to orbit Mercury or Venus.

All the planets have satellites, except Mercury and Venus.Jupiter
A solar satellite is any object that orbits the sun. Planets, asteroids, and comets are considered solar satellites.
Mercury and Venus do not have any natural satellites.
Of the eight planets in our solar system, only Mercury and Venus have no known satellites. Furthermore, Pluto has at least four of them.

As of the end of 2010, planetary astronomers have documented about 245 known satellites of the planets in the solar system.
Most moons orbiting the various planets of our solar system are considered "satellites" - more specifically, "natural satellites". In addition, the more general use applies to the various space modules, etc., orbiting around the earth or around other planets of the solar system. As they are the result of human device, they are considered, "artificial Satellites". Sputnik 1, as the very first of these, acts as prime example.
None. By definition , our "solar system" is everything controlled by the gravity of our sun. The planets, their satellites, asteroids, dwarf planets, comets, interplanetary dust, and man-made satellites are "within" our solar system. Any "planet" outside out solar system is just that - OUTSIDE of it.
because Satellites can send pictures of the planets for us to explore ( Mentally not Physically )
The only planets in our solar system that do not have natural satellites are Mercury and Venus.
