Random thought:
Planets revolve around the sun and moons revolves around whatever planet they belong to, but what would you call something that revolved around a moon? Is there even such a thing?

Considering that the revolving has something to do with gravity, I'd say that such a something would revolve around the corresponding planet rather than its moon.

Yes, yes - but then, why do moons revolve around planets instead of the sun? Besides, I was not so much wondering whether it would be possible, more what it would be called...
