NASA defines a satellite as a moon, planet or machine that orbits a planet or star.
Explanation:
Most people think of satellites in the context of artificial satellites i.e. machines launched into orbit around the earth. However, the earth itself is a satellite orbiting the sun and the moon is a satellite orbiting the earth. The distinction is really natural versus artificial (man-made) satellites.
