Any non man made satelite that orbits around a planet is considered a moon.

[@jamesmurray5934]

@SNOWDEVlL something 33ft across and flying by, is not a moon. It's not orbiting anything. Just zooming around on a scenic tour.

This isn't a moon stop calling it that a true moon is captured in orbit it's not captured it's going to leave 😂

The black knight for realzys guys. Don’t think too many bad thoughts…

[@weareone7315]

We have a mini moon. But we can’t see it? 😂 more b.s

[@SNOWDEVlL]

Yea, cause it's the size of a bus, relative to earths size, you wouldn't see it even if it was orbiting at the same distance as the international space station.
