What is the motion of one object around another?
In planetary terms, when referring to the motion of planets and moons etc. the motion is describes as orbiting. Moons are on orbit around planets, while the planets are in orbit around the sun. An orbital motion.
What is a revolation?
In astronomy, "revolution" refers to the motion of a planet in an orbit. This is in distinction to "rotation" which is the spinning motion of a planet or other body. Thus, the Earth rotates on its axis while it revolves around the Sun.

How is rotation different from revolution?
"Rotation" refers to an object's spinning motion about its own axis. "Revolution" refers the object's orbital motion around another object
