Detailed explanation-1: -Of the eight planets, Mercury and Venus are the only ones with no moons. The giant planets Jupiter and Saturn lead our solar system’s moon counts.
Detailed explanation-2: -The gas giant is indeed the largest planet in the solar system, weighing more than twice the mass of all the other planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and more combined. However, Jupiter does not technically orbit the sun-because it’s so dauntingly massive.
Detailed explanation-3: -Of the terrestrial (rocky) planets of the inner solar system, neither Mercury nor Venus have any moons at all, Earth has one and Mars has its two small moons. In the outer solar system, the gas giants Jupiter and Saturn and the ice giants Uranus and Neptune have dozens of moons.
Detailed explanation-4: -Detailed Solution. Option 4 is the correct answer: Venus does not have a natural satellite. Satellite is an object (natural or man-made) revolving around a heavenly body. For example, the planets and asteroids orbiting around the sun moons or manmade machines orbiting the planets.
