A natural satellite is any celestial body in space that orbits around a planet. For example, Moon is the natural satellite of Earth whereas, Ganymede is the largest moon of Jupiter.

Satellites that are made by humans and launched into orbit using rockets are called artificial satellites. For example, Aryabhatta and Bhaskara -II are Indian artificial satellites.
