According to NASA, Jupiter has 50 confirmed moons and another 14 candidates. Amazing, eh?

I agree with Lena.

A moon is a celestial body that orbits a planet or smaller body. So the number of moons of any planet can change with time. This is probably where the 14 candidates come from, moons that have just arrived or about to leave orbit?
