Rotation and translation of the Earth and Moon

Support Animation and Rigging
1

This is my first time in Blender Artists. I want to animate the rotation of the Earth and the moon around the sun. This is not problem, but i can’t make the rotation of the moon around the Earth while both are rotating around the sun. Is there another kind of rotation that i should use? Sorry for my bad english

You can build up various levels of rotation.
Instead of animating the movement of the planets position empties at the point of rotation and parenting of objetcs to empties and parenting empties to other objects to build up a hierarchy

See attached example
