The object that orbits most plantes are called?
Moons orbit most planets. Moons are celestial bodies that revolve around a planet in a predictable path due to gravitational forces. They vary in size and composition and play a significant role in shaping the planets they orbit.
Why does Pluto have more moons than the moon?
No moon in the solar system has a moon orbiting it. Scientists think that moons orbit too close to their planets to have their own moons as the orbits would be unstable. Why Pluto has five moons while Earth only has one is a complicated story about the unique histories of each planet, but is probably at least partly related to Pluto's greater distance from the sun, which allows it a larger sphere of influence despite its smaller mass, and its location in a debris field of smaller icy objects.
What are the satellites of Mercury?
no, mercury and venus are the only two planets that do not have moons.
Are there countless Earth-like planets and moons in the universe?
no because scientists think that earth is the only planet in the universe that supports life :3
What is the number of satellite moons for Jupiter?
there is 36 satellite moons I think.
How was Jupiter discoverded?
I think when the telescope was invented, I think people use it to look at other planets. Even moons.
Is there a planet that has 5 moons?
There are planets that have more than 5 moons, but none that we know of that have 5 exactly.
How is the moon different from a planet?
the moons orbit the planet but the planets orbit the sunMoons revolve round planets. Planets revolve round suns.___________AlternateThe truth is that planets orbit round their moons, or more precisely a planet and its moon(s) orbit around their barycenter, the center of gravity of the planet-moon system. This is true for the earth, but this orbital motion of earth is less noticeable than the orbital motion of the smaller moon. I think the real difference between planets and their moons is relative size.
Do any of the dwarf planets have moons?
Pluto ... which I think was the first member of the newly-defined "dwarf planet" category ... has two known moons.

Would you think astronomers might have found all of the moons of the outer planets?
No, one cannot be sure.
Which planet has the most planets orbiting it?
In our solar system, the dwarf planets Pluto and Charon orbit each other around a common center of gravity located in the empty space between them. As the only binary planets in our solar system, that makes Pluto and Charon share the title as having the most planets orbiting another planet. Planet like objects that orbit planets, without them orbiting each other, are called moons. The title for the planet with most moons, is passed back and forth between Jupiter and Saturn, as new (to us) and ever smaller moons are discovered. Currently, Jupiter holds the title with 63 moons.
Do you Think The way a planets moons form is similar to or different from the way the planets formed around the sun?
Obviously they formed in the same manner...Gravity is Gravity!

What is the same about all the planets?
well their all round, they are all in space, and they all circle the sun and i think most of them have moons
What are the satellites of Mercury?
no, mercury and venus are the only two planets that do not have moons.
Does every planet have a moon?
No. Neither Mercury nor Venus have any moons.
