  1. they don't. everybody knows this.

    it can be argued that they are too close to teh sun for any moons to have stable orbits.


  2. None have been detected for those two planets.

  3. Mercury and Venus are the only planets that don't have moons. Here is a list of the other planets and how many moons they each have:

    Earth - 1

    Mars - 2

    Jupiter - 62

    Saturn - 33

    Uranus - 27

    Neptune - 13

    Pluto - 1

    Total - 139

    But, I bet you already knew all that.

  4. Mercury and Venus have no moons.

    Earth has one, Mars has two, Jupiter has 63, Saturn has 60, Uranus has 27, and Neptune has 13.

    Dwarf planets Pluto has three and Eris has one.
