It is currently impossible to name every planet in existence. The known planets in our solar system (listed with planet type and number and names of known moons) are as follows (in ascending order of orbital radius):
- Mercury (Terrestrial) [0]
- Venus (Terrestrial) [0]
- Earth (Terrestrial) [1, Luna]
- Mars (Terrestrial) [2, Phobos and Deimos]
- Ceres (Dwarf planet) [0]
- Vesta (Protoplanet) [0]
- Pallas (Protoplanet) [0]
- Jupiter (Gas giant) [66]
- Saturn (Gas giant) [62]
- Uranus (Ice giant) [27]
- Neptune (Ice giant) [13]
- Orcus (Dwarf planet) [1, Vanth]
- Pluto (Dwarf planet, binary) [4, Nix, Hydra, P4, P5]
- Charon (Dwarf planet, binary) [4, Nix, Hydra, P4, P5]
- Haumea (Dwarf planet) [2, Hi'iaka, Namaka]
- Quaoar (Dwarf planet) [1, Weywot]
- Makemake (Dwarf planet) [0]
- 2007 OR10 "Snow White" (Dwarf planet) [0]
- Eris (Dwarf planet) [1, Dysnomia]
- Sedna (Dwarf planet) [0]
What else can I help you with?
Are moons satellites to planets?
yes moons are satellites to other planets
Why are the planets considered satellites?
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 the same gravitational layer?
Do all planets and satellites lie on the same gravitational layer?
How are planets different from satellites?
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.
What is the name of objects that revolve around planets?
Objects that are in orbit around planets are commonly called satellites
Are moons satellites to planets?
yes moons are satellites to other planets
What are satellites of planets?
Natural satellites of planets are called moons, if they are large enough.
Are planets satellites of the sun?
Yes, the planets can be described as being satellites of the sun.
Are the planets are satellites of the sun?
Yes, the planets can be described as being satellites of the sun.
What are chunks of rock and metal that orbit between the planets?
Those are called satellites.
What planets in the Solar System have satellites?
All the planets have satellites, except Mercury and Venus.Jupiter
Why do planets and satellites orbit the sun?
Planets and satellites orbit the sun due to the gravitational pull of the sun. This gravitational force keeps them in their respective orbits as they move through space. The balance between the inertia of the planets/satellites and the gravitational force of the sun results in stable orbits.
Can Gas planets have satellites?
Yes, any planet can have satellites. Gas planets actually have the most satellites due to their large masses.
What are moons to planets?
Moons are satellites of planets.
What is the source of gravitational pull on the planets?
The gravitational pull on all the planets are artificial satellites because the satellites orbit all the planets!
What makes planets and satellites?
after a star explodes, the star dust coalesces to form more stars, planets, and satellites
Do Inner planets rings and satellites more rings and satellites than outer planets?
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.
