Objects that are "stationary" on Earth's surface are moving faster nearer the equator. The eastward motion of the rotating Earth is greatest at the equator (about 1037 mph or 1670 kph).

∙ 14y agoIn space, certainly. On Earth, any attempt to go really fast - like, 3,000 MPH - will cause atmospheric friction that can destroy the vehicle. The only way around it is to get as high as possible to minimize air resistance; that is, get as close to space as you can.
In space, the only real speed limits are "how much fuel can you carry", and the speed of light - which, to be honest, isn't much of a limit.

What is the object called that is sent to space to circle earth?
A Satellite
What is the white planet-like object that rotates around the earth in space?
The moon.
Is a space object approaching earth?
There are always space objects approaching us, and others going away from us.
What measurement tool would give different results on the International Space Station than on earth even when measuring the same object?
A scale that measures weight would give a different measurement in space than on earth for the same object.
What causes a sonic boom when a space shuttle lands?
Sonic booms occur when an object (space shuttle) is traveling faster than the speed of sound and the air in front of the object is compressed. As the air is compressed it emits a noise, thus the sonic boom.
Can you throw objects faster in space or on earth?
Space bcause theres no air resistance to slow down the object in space.
Where is an object that is stationary to earth's surface moving faster relative to space?
Objects that are "stationary" on Earth's surface are moving faster nearer the equator. The eastward motion of the rotating Earth is greatest at the equator (about 1037 mph or 1670 kph).

What object in space is closest to the earth?
The closest natural object to Earth is the moon.
What other space object is similar to earth?
Saturn's moon Titan is the most recent object found in space to be similar to Earth.

What is an object sent to space to Circle earth?
What is an object sent into space to circle earthA satellite ?
What is the close space object to earth?
moon
What is a correct statement about the moon?
The Moon is the closest object in space to Earth. Earth's moon is of particular importance to us because it is the closest object to Earth in space. And it is the only extraterrestrial object that has been visited by astronauts.
How is the force of earth's gravity overcome when an object is launched into space?
The object launched into space has rocket motors with more force taking it away from Earth than Earth's force of gravity has in pulling the object toward its center.
How do you see an object from space on earth?
This is because the object is so large in size.
How is earth the same as the planets?
it orbits an object in space.
