Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system and as such has a tremendous gravitational well. This gravity is what has enabled Jupiter to attract and keep in orbit its 67 moons.
Not our (the Earth's) moon but Jupiter has lots of its own moons that orbit it.
The moons stay in orbit around Jupiter by the force of gravity.
The moons stay in orbit around Jupiter due to the planet's strong gravitational pull. This gravitational force keeps the moons in check and prevents them from moving away into space. They orbit around Jupiter because of the balance between their inertia and the gravitational force pulling them towards the planet.
Ganymede orbits Jupiter, as it is one of Jupiter's moons. It follows an elliptical path around Jupiter, completing an orbit roughly every seven days. Ganymede's orbit is influenced by the gravitational pull of Jupiter and the other moons in the Jovian system.
The moon we see doesn't, but all of Jupiter's moons do. (About 50)
The moons stay in orbit around Jupiter due to the gravitational pull of the planet. As of June 2014, Jupiter has 63 known moons.
Gravity holds satellites in orbit.
63 known moons orbit Jupiter.

Yes. if they did not they would not be Jupiter's moons.
Jupiter doesn't orbit its moons because it has a greater mass than them.
yes and no there;s no answer
Gravity, just like our moon. gravity pulls it around
The moons stay in orbit around Jupiter by the force of gravity.
No, planets orbit around the sun. There are over 60 moons that orbit around Jupiter though.
No, the moons of Mars (Phobos and Phoebe) orbit Mars. Jupiter is another planet and has its own moons.
The moons stay in orbit around Jupiter due to the planet's strong gravitational pull. This gravitational force keeps the moons in check and prevents them from moving away into space. They orbit around Jupiter because of the balance between their inertia and the gravitational force pulling them towards the planet.
