What planets have more moons on average?
Jupiter and Saturn have the most moons on average. Jupiter has 79 known moons, while Saturn has 83 confirmed moons. Both planets have numerous smaller moons, with more potentially waiting to be discovered.
Does the mass of a planet seem to affect how many moon it has?
Yes, the mass of a planet can influence the number of moons it has. A planet's gravity can capture objects like satellites and smaller bodies, increasing the likelihood of having more moons. Additionally, larger planets with stronger gravitational pull generally have more moons compared to smaller planets.
Does the terrestrial planets have more moons than the outer planets?
Oh no, it is the outer planets which have the most moons. Terrestrial planets such as Earth have relatively few moons.
Do rock planets or gas planets have more moons?
The gas planets have more moons. Of all the gas planets non has fewer than 14 moons. Of the rocky planets, none has more than two. Mercury and Venus have none at all.
Which planets do not have one or more moons orbiting them?
Mercury and Venus. These two planets have no known moons.

What captures most of the planets moons?
the gravitational pull of the gravity of the planet so in other words bigger planets more gravity, smaller planet less gravity. usually bigger planets have more moons
What smaller objects orbit a planets?
Moons.
Why are moons and planets different?
Planets are bodies that orbit a central star (in our case, the Sun), and moons are smaller bodies that orbit planets.

Do all the planets have smaller planets orbiting them?
No. Planets orbit suns, while moons orbit planets. Planets do not orbit planets.

Which of the following is usually the smallest A planets B comets C asteroids D moons?
its the comets are smaller than planets, moons, and asteroids. In order of size, usually comets < asteroids < moons < planets
Why do the planets go round the sun and not the moon?
Because the moons are the ones revolvimg around the planets (only some planets have moons, not all). And besides, moons aren't in the center of the solar system. They're even smaller than the planets.
Why are there no moons on smaller planet?
because the smaller planets have less mass, which means less gravity, so they won't attract any moons.
What has many moons inner planets or outer planets?
the inner plants have a total of three moons. our moon, and two moons of mars. Phobos, and Deimos. but the out planets have many more moons. Neptune has the least amount of moons out of all the outer planets. it has 13 moons. but, the other outer planets have way more. Jupiter even has 63. of course, there are probably many more moons still to be discovered. well, not for earth and mars. in total, the outer planets must have at least 100 moons.
