Kepler defined the basic laws of orbital motion, and these naturally had to be calculated.

What are the 2 orbits of satellites?
Artificial and natural satellites. Artificial satellites are man-made satellites sent into space for a variety of different purposes e.g. taking pictures of the earth for scientific investigation Natural satellites are moons, which orbit planets and are not man-made.
What orbits around the moon?
Other than a few artificial satellites, we are not aware of any substantial bodies orbiting around the moon.
What orbits a planet and its not a moon?
An object which orbits a planet is generically called a satellite. The moon is a satellite, but so are artificial satellites, and occasionally asteroids and space junk.
How high artificial satellites are?
That depends on the purpose of the satellite. Many are in "low Earth orbit", between 120 and 200 miles up. Communications satellites are generally in "geo-synchronous" orbits 23,000 miles high, and GPS satellites are in 12,000 mile orbits. And many altitudes in between.
What are natural or artifial bodies that orbit larger celestial bodies such as planets?
These are called satellites. A lot of planets have natural satellites called moons, which are in orbit around the planet. An artificial satellite is one that is put there by man, it orbits the planet in a similar way.

Which source of gravity is maintaining all four satellites around the earth?
Satellites of the Earth are held in their orbits by the Earth's gravity. That includes the Moon and all the artificial satellites etc. that are up there.
What satellite orbits around the earth and takes the same time it takes for the earth to rotate on its axis?
Only artificial, geostationary satellites.
Satellites with orbits revolve around earth?
no
Satellites with what orbits around earth?
moon
Why is the moon called a satellite of earth?
A satellite is an object that orbits around a planet or body in space. There are artificial satellites and natural satellites. An artificial satellite is an object, like a space station, that has been set into orbit around a planet by humans. A natural satellite naturally finds its way into close orbit around a planet, like the moon naturally orbits the Earth.
What has the author E M Soop written?
E. M. Soop has written: 'Handbook of geostationary orbits' -- subject(s): Artificial satellites, Control systems, Data processing, Geostationary satellites, Orbits, PEPSOC
What is a natural satellite that orbits a planet?
Satellites are natural or artificial bodies that revolve around larger bodies like planets. Except for Mercury and Venus, all of the planets have natural satellites call MOONS.

What are 4 types of Mand-made satellites that are floating around the earth?
artificial and natural satellites lang ang alam ko artificial satellite an object that orbits another object know as its primary.The term is often used to describe an artificial satellite.Artificial satellites should be compared to another satellite in orbit around the earth which are not man made ad therefore natural satellit. ^__^ natural satellite has no us as such. sana makatulog po ito <3
