A moon, when referring to a natural rock like satellite, not a man made artificial satellite such as Telstar.

Meteroids or comets can impact on a planet.
The Satellite Atlas orbits the planet Saturn.
An artificial satellite is a man-made object injected into orbit around another object (The Space Station is an artificial satellite of the Earth). A natural satellite is a "natural" object that orbits around another object (The Moon is a natural satellite of the Earth).
The only artificial satellite on Mars is the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, which has been in orbit around the planet since 2006.
The Earth is to the Moon as a planet is to its moon. So, if we're talking about a satellite orbiting a planet, then the planet would be analogous to the Earth, and the satellite would be analogous to the Moon.

Satellite.
A moon
lunar The moon is a satellite. Meaning it orbits another planet.
A moon can also be referred to as a natural satellite, which is defined as "a celestial body that orbits another body". A natural satellite can orbit a planet, dwarf planet, minor planet, asteroid, or almost any other celestial object. The object being orbited is referred to as the natural satellite's primary.
planet ?
Meteroids or comets can impact on a planet.
We have assigned names of things obviously. Planet is the name for those which goes around the sun. And satellite is the one which goes around the planet. So earth is a planet and not considered as satellite. Moon is the natural satellite to our earth.
you can see a shadow on the planet and its so cool
A moon? I don't think a planet orbiting another planet would be called a planet.
A satellite can be natural or artificial. An artificial satellite is placed in orbit around the earth, moon, or another planet in order to collect information or for communication. A natural satellite is a celestial body orbiting the earth or another planet.
