What is the difference between a star, satellite and a planet?

Question Posted / Ravindera Kumar Dhar Dwidi

Answer Posted / Ravindera Kumar Dhar Dwidi

A star is a massive celestial object that emits light and heat due to nuclear fusion reactions in its core. A satellite is any natural or man-made body orbiting a planet. A planet is a large astronomical body orbiting a star, not classified as a moon, having sufficient mass to assume a spheroid shape due to gravity.
