  • Understanding Satellites: Orbits and Celestial Bodies
    The object that orbits more massive objects is called a satellite.

    Here's a breakdown:

    * Orbit: A satellite's path around a more massive object.

    * More Massive Object: This could be a planet, star, or even another satellite.

    * Satellite: An object in orbit around a larger object.

    For example:

    * The Moon is a natural satellite that orbits the Earth.

    * The International Space Station is an artificial satellite that orbits the Earth.

    * Planets are satellites that orbit stars.
