A satellite is an object that orbits another.
Hence the earth is a satellite of the sun, and the moon is a satellite of the earth because they orbits those respective bodies.
Artificial satellites (GPS, weather, etc) are man made objects that orbit another body (typically the earth).
Those are called planetary satellites or natural satellites. Each planet has its own set of natural satellites that orbit around it.
Communication satellites: these are used to transmit television, radio, telephone, and internet signals. Navigation satellites: like the GPS system, these help determine location and provide accurate time information. Weather satellites: used to monitor weather patterns and provide important data for weather forecasting.
The planet Earth upon which we live has precisely one natural satellite, which is known as the moon, or Luna, and it has a great many artificial satellites, including the International Space Station, communication satellites, surveillance satellites, global positioning satellites, etc.
A group of satellites is commonly referred to as a "constellation." These satellites work together to provide various services such as communication, navigation, and Earth observation. Examples of well-known satellite constellations include the Global Positioning System (GPS) and the Starlink constellation.
In astronomical terms, a satellite is any body that orbits another body. Planets are satellites of stars, and there are smaller "satellite galaxies" that border or orbit larger galaxies such as the Milky Way.The word moons refers to satellites of planets, dwarf planets, or asteroids. They are often called "natural satellites" to differentiate them from "artificial satellites" which are manmade devices in orbit around planets or moons.
Yes but they are called natural satellites
The tv satellites orbit called is a geo stationery.
The planet Mercury has no natural satellites.
satellites
no satellites rotate around the sun!
Natural satellites of planets are called moons, if they are large enough.

No - satellites do not go to the moon. Satellites orbit planets/moons/objects with gravity in space.
