Body revolving round another (9)

I believe the answer is:

satellite

(Other definitions for satellite that I've seen before include "Body in orbit around another" , "sidekick" , "Subordinate" , "important person's attendant" , "Celestial body orbiting around another" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
