A natural object that orbits a planet?
moon Actually, anything that orbits a planet is called a satellite. Natural examples are moons, but man-made ones are things like the telescopes sent up from earth.
How does a moons motion compare to a planets motion?
A moon orbits around a planet, while a planet orbits around a star. Moons tend to have faster and smaller orbits compared to planets, which follow larger and slower orbits around the star. Additionally, moons' orbits are influenced by the gravitational pull of their host planet, whereas planets are not typically influenced by other celestial bodies in the same way.
How many moons does Planet X have?
Planet X is a hypothetical planet that has yet to be confirmed. Therefore until it is discovered, it will not have any moons.
What do moons orbit?
A natural satellite (or moon), usually orbits a major planet.
How are asteroid and moons alike and different?
Both asteroids and moons can be rocky. An asteroid orbits the Sun while a moon orbits a planet. Mars has two moons (Deimos and Phobos) that are most likely former asteroids.
How do the orbit of planets differ from the orbit of moons?
A planet orbits a star. A moon orbits a planet or dwarf planet.
What is a system in which moons orbit a star?
Moons don't orbit stars; they orbit planets. If it's a moon, then it orbits a planet. If it orbits a star, then it isn't a moon, it's a planet.

What is a planet and the moons that revolve around it called?
A planet and its moons are collectively referred to as a planetary system. The planet is the primary celestial body that orbits a star, while moons are natural satellites that orbit the planet.
Why are Saturn's moons not planets?
A moon is an object that orbits a planet. A planet cannot orbit another planet.
What is the planet that titan orbits around?
Titan is one of Saturn's moons.
What orbits a planet at a close distance?
A moon, or perhaps many moons.

Which planet has 0 moons and orbits the sun very fast?
Mercury. It is the closest planet to the sun and so orbits at the fastest speed and in the shortest time, just 88 days. Venus also has no moons and orbits very quickly, since it is only the second planet out. Not as quickly as mercury though.
What planet has a satellite called Triton?
The satellite Triton is on the planet Neptune. It is the largest of Neptune's moons. Neptune has 13 moons. It orbits in the opposite direction if its planet's rotation.
What planet does moon orbits?
All the planets except Venus and Mercury have moons.
