Planets have moons. Damn!

Jupiter has 63 known satellites.  Scott Shepard maintains one of the better acountings of planetary moons.

I quote : "Two small moons have been discovered orbiting Pluto, bringing the planet's retinue of known satellites to three and leaving scientist to wonder how it could be. ...The moons are catalogued as S/2005 P1 and S/2005 P2 for now. Once they are confirmed, the discoverers will suggest names, to be approved by the International Astronomical Union."\n\nFrom: http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/051031_pluto_moons.html

What is an eclipse of the Sun? What causes eclipses and why? How often do eclipses happen and when is the next eclipse of the Sun? You'll learn the answers to these questions and more in MrEclipse's primer on solar eclipses. Before we find more about the eclipses of the Sun, we need to first talk about the Moon. \n\nThe Moon is a cold, rocky body about 2,160 miles (3,476 km) in diameter. It has no light of its own but shines by sunlight reflected from its surface. The Moon orbits Earth about once every 29 and a half days. As it circles our planet, the changing position of the Moon with respect to the Sun causes our natural satellite to cycle through a series of phases: \n\nNew, New Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full, \nWaning Gibbous, Last Quarter, Old Crescent and back to New again.\n\n\n\nPhases of theMoon. \nThe phase known as New Moon can not actually be seen because the illuminated side of the Moon is then pointed away from Earth. The rest of the phases are familiar to all of us as the Moon cycles through them month after month. Did you realize that the word month is derived from the Moon's 29.5 day period? \n\nTo many early civilizations, the Moon's monthly cycle was an important tool for measuring the passage of time. In fact many calendars are synchronized to the phases of the Moon. The Hebrew, Muslem and Chinese calendars are all lunar calendars. The New Moon phase is uniquely recognized as the beginning of each calendar month just as it is the beginning on the Moon's monthly cycle. When the Moon is New, it rises and sets with the Sun because it lies very close to the Sun in the sky. Although we cannot see the Moon during New Moon phase, it has a very special significance with regard to eclipses. \n\n\n\nBasic Geometry of the Sun, Moon and Earth During an Eclipse of the Sun \nAn eclipse of the Sun (or solar eclipse) can only occur at New Moon when the Moon passes between Earth and Sun. If the Moon's shadow happens to fall upon Earth's surface at that time, we see some portion of the Sun's disk covered or 'eclipsed' by the Moon. Since New Moon occurs every 29 1/2 days, you might think that we should have a solar eclipse about once a month. Unfortunately, this doesn't happen because the Moon's orbit around Earth is tilted 5 degrees to Earth's orbit around the Sun. As a result, the Moon's shadow usually misses Earth as it passes above or below our planet at New Moon. At least twice a year, the geometry lines up just right so that some part of the Moon's shadow falls on Earth's surface and an eclipse of the Sun is seen from that region. \n\nThe Moon's shadow actually has two parts: \n\nPenumbra - Faint outer shadow; partial eclipses are seen from within this shadow. \n\nUmbra- Dark inner shadow; total eclipses are seen from within this shadow. \n\nWhen only the Moon's penumbral shadow strikes Earth, we see a partial eclipse of the Sun from that region. Partial eclipses are dangerous to look at because the un-eclipsed part of the Sun is still very bright. You must use special filters or a home-made pinhole projector to safely watch a partial eclipse of the Sun (see: Eclipses & Eye Safety). \n\nHowever, if the Moon's dark umbral shadow sweeps across Earth's surface, then a total eclipse of the Sun is seen (see figure below). The track of the Moon's shadow across Earth's surface is called the Path of Totality. It is typically 10,000 miles long but only 100 miles or so wide. In order to see the Sun totally eclipsed by the Moon, you must be in the path of totality. \n\n\n\nTotal Solar Eclipse and the Path of Totality \nThe total phase of a solar eclipse is very brief. It rarely lasts more than several minutes. Nevertheless, it is considered to be one of the most awe inspiring spectacles in all of nature. The sky takes on an eerie twilight as the Sun's bright face is replaced by the black disk of the Moon. Surrounding the Moon

For many years, we knew of 16 moons for the largest planet in our solar system. In the last few years, about two dozen new moons have been announced by astronomers. However, being announced does not mean that these become "official" moons of the planet. To be recognized by the scientific community as a new moon involves a process which may take several years - and some announced objects never get recognized at all!

Jupiter has 63 moons or "natural satellites" ... http://www.answers.com/jupiter's%20moons\n\nThey have ALL been named ...\n\nThe Voyager 1 mission discovered three inner moons in 1979, bringing the total then known to 16 (17 if one counted Themisto, which had been found but then lost in 1975). The total rested there until 1999. Since then, researchers using sensitive ground-based detectors have recovered Themisto and found a further 46 tiny moons in long, eccentric, generally retrograde orbits. They average 3 kilometres in diameter, and the largest is barely 9 km across. All of these moons are thought to be captured asteroidal or perhaps cometary bodies, possibly fragmented into several pieces, but very little is actually known about them. The total number of known moons of Jupiter now stands at 63, currently the most of any planet in the solar system. Many additional tiny moons may exist that have not yet been discovered.

13 Moons have a few relevance they are -\n\nAccording to Native americans thirteen moons in a year were named as under:\nMOON NAMES \n\nJANUARY- Alamikos- Greetings Maker Moon\nFEBRUARY- Piaôdagos - Makes Branches Fall In Pieces Moon\nMARCH - Mozokas  - Moose Hunter Moon\nMID-MARCH - Sigwankas - Spring Season Maker Moon\nAPRIL- Sogalikas  -  Sugar Maker Moon\nMAY -   Kikas -  Field Maker Moon\nJUNE - Nokahigas - Hoer Moon\nJULY  - Temaskikos  - Grass Cutter Moon\nAUGUST - Temezôwas  - Cutter Moon\nSEPTEMBER - Skamonkas  - Corn Maker Moon\nOCTOBER - Penibagos - Leaf Falling Moon\nNOVEMBER - Mzatanos  - Freezing River maker Moon\nDECEMBER - Pebonkas - Winter Maker Moon\n\nIn Indian calender the lunar months are measures from one New Moon to the next (although some groups reckon from the Full Moon). Each lunar month is given the name of the solar month in which the lunar month begins. Because most lunations are shorter than a solar month, there is occasionally a solar month in which two New Moons occur. In this case, both lunar months bear the same name, but the first month is described with the prefix adhika, or intercalary. Such a year has thirteen lunar months. Adhika months occur every two or three years following patterns described by the Metonic cycle or more complex lunar phase cycles.\n\nApart from the above- \n\nThirteen Moons is a novel by Charles Frazier. \nCharles Frazier’s Thirteen Moons is the story of one man’s remarkable life, spanning a century of relentless change.\n\nI do not know which one you meant. You can take the one you meant as my answer. Thanx.

must be thousands, as strictly all satellites that have been launched and are still up there go round the sun by virtue of the fact that the earth and all other planets go round the sun

50 moons are currently confirmed, 34 of which have names. The precise figure will never be certain as the orbiting chunks of ice in Saturn's rings are all technically moons, and it is difficult to draw a distinction between a large ring particle and a tiny moon. Saturn's most noteworthy moon is Titan, the only moon in the solar system to have a dense atmosphere.\n\nThis website for confirmation and more info -->http://www.planetary.org/saturn/moons.html\n\nGod is spelled B-I-G B-A-N-G\nPBrax@netscape.com

The moon is known as the moon, but there are also other names given to it such as: Luna by the Romans and Selene and Artemis by the Greeks. It is also known as one of Earth's satellite. It is the second largest object in the sky and orbit 384,400km from the Earth. Its diametre is 3,476km and it has a mass of 7.35kg. As far as I know there are no other name for the earth's moon persay.

As of April 18th, 2006 we know of 152 planetary systems other than our own containing a total of 176 planets.  This number grows fairly frequently as more and more observations are being made.
