Could you have a binary set of moons that orbit a planet together? Not 2 moons in separate orbits, but a pair or moons rotating around each other and orbiting a planet as well.

Was watching Avatar when I noticed that the Earth like planet they are on is actually a moon going around another planet. Could an earthlike planet orbit another planet like jupiter and still sustain life?

How do gas Giants work? I read that Jupiters atmosphere makes up 3 percent of the planets mass. What's the other 97 percent? Is there a "surface" or could you go through the majority of the planet?
