well, all planets have different numbers of satellites... if you start from first planet Mercury, it has no natural satellite. Venus is also free of that.. Earth has one big that we can see and its called Moon or Luna(Greek for Moon) but astronomer say that earth has more than one, probably seven or some say two. Mars has two, Jupiter has 63 known satellites to date (including biggest satellite in solar system Ganymede) , Saturn has 60 to 62, Uranus has 27 known satellites, Neptune has 13 known satellites and Pluto has 3 (Not a planet anymore though)
yes moons are satellites to other planets
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.
Do all planets and satellites lie on the same gravitational layer?
simple! planets are huge or normally bigger than satellites in terms of mass, area and size. planets normally have a atmosphere like the earth. planets revolve around the sun whereas satellites revolve around the planet. both of them are non luminous object which means they reflect the light from the sun. satellites are usually fragments of a planet when it was forming.
Objects that are in orbit around planets are commonly called satellites
yes moons are satellites to other planets
Natural satellites of planets are called moons, if they are large enough.
Yes, the planets can be described as being satellites of the sun.
Yes, the planets can be described as being satellites of the sun.
All the planets have satellites, except Mercury and Venus.Jupiter
Yes, any planet can have satellites. Gas planets actually have the most satellites due to their large masses.
Moons are satellites of planets.
The gravitational pull on all the planets are artificial satellites because the satellites orbit all the planets!
after a star explodes, the star dust coalesces to form more stars, planets, and satellites
No, outer planets have more rings and satellites compared to inner planets. For example, Jupiter has the most known satellites with over 80 moons, while Saturn is known for its extensive ring system. Inner planets like Earth and Mars have few to no natural satellites.
Please specify which planets you mean.
