In our solar system: Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus and, if you want to count it, Pluto.
No, outer planets have more rings and satellites compared to inner planets. For example, Jupiter has the most known satellites with over 80 moons, while Saturn is known for its extensive ring system. Inner planets like Earth and Mars have few to no natural satellites.
The solar system consists of eight planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Each planet has its own collection of natural satellites (moons). For example, Earth has one moon, while Jupiter has more than 79 known moons. In total, there are over 200 natural satellites orbiting planets within our solar system.
Yes, Saturn has a few moons. Titan, Rhea, and Iapetus are some of the major moons. NASA has them categorized or Wikipedia has more information about them. There are eight major satellites and fifty-some lesser satellites and unconfirmed satellites.
Mercury and Venus both lack natural satellites. Mars has two small ones. Jupiter and Saturn each have more than 60, with Ganymede and Titan both being larger than Mercury.
A moon is a celestial body that revolves around a planet. Moons are natural satellites that orbit planets due to gravitational forces. The Earth's moon is a well-known example of a celestial body that revolves around a planet.
Mercury and Venus. These two planets have no known moons.
No. There are more than that. There are currently 173 known moons orbiting planets in our solar system and many more orbiting dwarf planets, asteroids, and comets.
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.
As of September 2008[update], 335 bodies are formally classified as moons. They include 167 orbiting six of the eight planets, 6 orbiting three of the five dwarf planets, 104 asteroid moons, and 58 satellites of Trans-Neptunian objects, some of which will likely turn out to be dwarf planets.There are expected to be more yet to be discovered.
There are 8 planets in our solar system that have moons. These planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Each of these planets has one or more moons orbiting around them.

Well, call me a scientist, satellites are sometimes known as ANYTHING that can orbit a rock, star or planet. So, Neptune does have eleven (or more, who knows) moons. Satellites are usually known as the man-made space telescopes, but they can be anything that orbits. Here, let me explain: Planets: Mercury, Earth, Venus... (you know) Stars: The sun Satellites: The moon, Hubble telescope, and other of Earths satellites
There are 168 known natural satellites (moons) of the 8 major planets. There are also moons around 3 of the 5 dwarf planets (Pluto, Eris, and Haumea). There are more than 200 artificial satellites (or expired satellites) in Earth orbit or scattered throughout the solar system.
The orbit of each planet it the path it takes as it rotates round the Sun under the influence of the force of gravity. Every planet has a separate orbit and the orbits all follow Kepler's three laws of planetary motion.
Yes, Saturn has a few moons. Titan, Rhea, and Iapetus are some of the major moons. NASA has them categorized or Wikipedia has more information about them. There are eight major satellites and fifty-some lesser satellites and unconfirmed satellites.
Most of the eight planets in our solar system have at least one natural satellite or moon, some up to 60 or more. Mercury and Venus are the two exceptions, they have no known natural satellites.
