Celestial objects rise in the east and set in the west not due to Earth's revolution (orbit), but due to Earth's rotation, or how it spins. Since the earth spins around 1 full time approximately every day, we see all the objects in our sky come up and go back down once every day. It does this every day while orbiting the sun, but it takes a full year to get around the sun once, so the effects of the orbit are much slower.
Planets are not considered satellites, but rather celestial bodies that orbit around stars, like our Sun. Satellites are objects that orbit larger celestial bodies, such as planets orbiting around stars or moons orbiting around planets.

He reasoned that since parallax could not be observed for celestial objects near the sun, then the earth was stationary. This erroneous assumption was because at the time he had no way of knowing that celestial objects were so far away that their parallax angles were too small to detect.He reasoned that since parallax could not be observed for celestial objects near the sun, then the earth was stationary.

We observe celestial objects from the Earth. Since Earth rotates around the sun we see the celestial objects moving too. So basically due to the rotation of the Earth, celestial objects always seems to move from East to West.Hope that helped Of-course that must have helped, -Hailey xD LOL
The Celestial Globe (or sphere) is an imaginary sphere around our planet, earth. All objects in the sky and space, such as satellites, can be thought inside this invisible sphere.

Solar relates to the sun. The sun is a star. A solar system is a star that has planets and other celestial objects orbiting around it in an ordered manner.

A satellite is an object that orbits a planet. The Sun is a star so it does not have satellites. Actually a satellite is anything that orbits another. So the planets and asteriods are the sun's satellites.
Many different objects in space revolve around many other things. Usually, it is acceptable to use the term 'satellite' when describing a moon's orbit around a planet, or even a planet's orbit around a star.
Assuming no typo on your part regarding the "A" satellite, it would be that the moon was the first satellite orbiting earth. If you meant "why is the moon known as a satellite", it's because it is a satellite. Anything that orbits is a satellite.
Objects that move around other objects in the universe are said to be orbiting it, or in orbit.
Galileo's observation of Jupiter's moons provided direct evidence that not all celestial bodies revolve around the Earth. By observing the moons orbiting Jupiter, he showed that there are objects in the universe that do not orbit the Earth, contradicting the geocentric model which placed Earth at the center of the universe with all celestial bodies orbiting around it.

To move around a center point means to navigate in a circular or semi-circular path relative to that point. This can involve rotating or orbiting around the center, maintaining a consistent distance from it. Such movement is often seen in various contexts, such as celestial bodies orbiting a star or objects rotating on a turntable. This concept is fundamental in physics, geometry, and many real-world applications.
