Which Planet Has The Most Moons?

Answer Question

6 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    The planet with the most moons is Jupiter. It has a total of sixty three moons. It is also the largest planet in the Solar System. A thousand earths could be made to fit into Jupiter. Saturn has the next highest number of moons at thirty four, nearly half those of Jupiter. Uranus has twenty seven moons while Neptune has thirteen. The rest just have a few moons, like Pluto's three, Mars's two and earth's one. Mercury and Venus have no moons at all.

    Jupiter's moons have been spotted as far back as 1610 when Galileo Galilee saw them through his telescope. The space probe voyager 2 identified most of the other moons.

    The Earth's moon is the only planetary body on which man has set foot besides earth. There is even so to speak a human buried there. The remains of Eugene Shoemaker a geologist in the form of his ashes were sent there in 1999.
