I’m not an astronomist, so my understanding of the definition of moon versus asteroids is fuzzy at best. That being said, as I understand it, there are several objects that aren’t visible to the naked eye that would qualify as moons, but I may be mistaken. As I understand it we have 1 moon that everyone can see, another 12-16 moon like objects that aren’t visible, and several hundred asteroids. All of these objects orbit The Earth, so they count as satellites of The Earth.
