List of natural satellites

Name	Appearance	Satellite of:	Description
Moon		Earth	The Moon is the "only" natural satellite of Earth. Most players choose to go to the Moon before Mars and after orbiting the Earth. They usually land landers and rovers on the surface, building lunar bases and constructing a lunar launch pad.
Captured Asteroid		Earth	An small, unnamed asteroid that orbits Earth. It is 200 meters in diameter and was added in the 1.5.10 update. Compared to everything else, it has the weakest gravity in Spaceflight Simulator.
Phobos		Mars	Phobos is the larger, inner moon of Mars and has low gravity. It has rough terrain. The low gravity makes landings and liftoffs easy.
Deimos		Mars	Deimos is the smaller, outer moon of Mars. It has no gravity, and the smallest celestial body in game.
Io		Jupiter	Io is the second smallest moon of Jupiter. It is also the closest to the planet. It has a larger gravity than the moon and it has volcanoes poking out of its surface.
Europa		Jupiter	Europa is the smallest of the moons of Jupiter. It is smaller than the moon and has a low gravity. It has a smooth and icy surface.
Ganymede		Jupiter	Ganymede is the largest moon of Jupiter. It is larger than Mercury and it has a gravity comparable to that of the moon. It has many surface features including rough terrain and some craters.
Callisto		Jupiter	Callisto is the second largest moon of Jupiter. It is also the farthest moon of Jupiter. Callisto has large craters on its surface.
