How many times did the sputnik orbit around the earth?
Sputnik I completed 1,440 orbits before falling back to earth.
What was the first artificial satellite?
The first artificial satellite to achieve Earth orbit successfully was Sputnik-1.It was launched by the USSR on October 4, 1957. It spent about 3 months in orbit and was followed by many other unmanned satellites. The first satellite to carry a human was Vostok, in which Yuri Gagarin orbited the Earth in 1961.The first artificial satellite was Sputnik I, launched by the Soviet Union on the 4th of October 1957
How many day hours and minutes did it take for John Glenn to orbit the earth?
John Glenn's Mercury mission lasted for 4 hours, 55 minutes, and 23 seconds. In this time, he was able to orbit the Earth three times.Glenn also was able to orbit the Earth on board the space shuttle Discovery three decades later, adding 8 days, 21 hours, 44 minutes, 56 seconds to his time in space. This trip, each orbit took 96 minutes.
Space shuttle orbits earth 1 time in 90 minutes so how many times would the space shuttle orbit earth in 6 hours?
i had this question in 5th grade going to 6th in my summer homwork the answer is 15=================================Apparently, the author of the previous answer never saw his summer homework grade.(One time in 90 minutes) leads to (four times in 6 hours).
How many times does the international space station circle the earth daily?
It takes about 90 minutes for it to do one orbit of the Earth, so it can go around Earth about 16 times a day.

How many times did Russian astronaut Yuri A. Gagarin orbit the earth?
Gagarin made one orbit of the earth in 108 minutes before coming back home.
How many days does it tack to orbit the Earth?
The ISS orbits the Earth in about 90 minutes. Some satellites are in geostationary orbit, orbiting in exactly one day. The Moon orbits (moves around) the Earth in about 28 days!

What is the force that makes satellites orbit at the same height around the earth?
Gravity keeps satellites in orbit. The closer you are to the Earth, the faster you have to go to maintain your orbit. At low Earth orbit, the altitude of the Space Station, you make an orbit every 90 minutes. At the Moon's distance you need over 27 days to go around the Earth. In-between there is an altitude which matches the rate of the Earth's rotation. Many satellites orbit at this altitude.
What is the space ship that went to the space?
Many ships have gone into space. Sputnik 1 was the first artificial satellite to orbit the earth in 1957. You will need to be more specific if you mean a particular date.

How many minutes does it take the earth to orbit the sun 12 times?
6.31 x 10 to the sixth exponent. Gl on your test.
How many days moon to revolve around earth?
Relative to the background stars, the moon takes 27 days 7 hours and 43 minutes to orbit the earth.
Which country sent the first artificial satellite into orbit?
After the launches by the USSR of Sputnik 1 (October 4, 1957) and Sputnik 2 (November 3, 1957), the US finally succeeded with Explorer 1 on January 31, 1958. Sputnik 1 had already fallen from orbit, and Sputnik 2 did so as well in April, 1958, following the March launch of Vanguard 1, the second US satellite and the oldest satellite still orbiting the Earth.
