Abstract

Determining of dynamic shapes of planetary satellites is today the urgent problem. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the physical properties of satellites which we refer to planetoids.Planetary satellites are analyzed as self-gravitating structures, and differences in their dynamic and geometric shapes are identified.

Keywords: moons of the planets; figure; gravitational field; form; mass
