      I think that Jupiter has the most confirmed moons with 63. Saturn must be close by though. Technically a moon is any natural object that orbits around a planet. So it may be the case that there are small pieces of rock orbiting Jupiter or Saturn that we can’t detect which would make it’s number of moons even higher!
