How hard does the wind blow in Uranus?
the wind in Uranus blows at 1400 to 1500 km per hour as its surface is flat and nothing to block the wind.
Can Artificial satellites orbit forever?
no they can not orbit forever. However, the time that a satellite will remain in orbit is dependent on altitude. Satellites in orbits above about 1500 miles will never decay and fall to Earth, in the expected lifetime of the solar system.Satellites will not stay in orbit forever. How long they stay up depends on how high they are and the satellite's ballistic coefficient, or mass/frontal area. The drag from our atmosphere decreases with height. Satellites in low orbits, say 500 km, will decay in a few years. At 1000 km they will stay up perhaps a century. Above a few thousand km they would stay practically forever.Proper disposal of spacecraft is important. A small piece of spacecraft or debris can continue to orbit for a long time, presenting a hazard to operating spacecraft.
How many meters are there in 1500 centimeters?
There are 100 centimetres in one metre. Therefore, 1500 centimetres is equal to 1500/100 = 15 metres.
What does Mercury planet look from Space?
From here on Earth, Mercury appears as a bright star. From orbit, it is a highly-cratered surface similar to the Moon. There is a large crater called the Caloris Basin, about 1500 km in width.

If you can see the International Space Station on one orbit why can't you see it on the next one 90 minutes later?
The earth is rotating under the space station's orbit, at roughly 1000 mph (at the equator). In 90 minutes, when the ISS is in the same spot in its orbit, you will have moved about 1500 miles westward.

How high was the atom bomb detonated on Hiroshima?
roughly 1500 feet above the ground.
How much can I expect to spend for an above-average freezer?
1500-3000 dollars easily.
What happens in the exosphere layer?
This is a large band of the atmosphere above the Mesosphere and below the Exosphere. Temperatures can be quite high here, up to 1500'C. Satellites, including the International Space Station, orbit the earth in this region. Although there is not much gas this high, there is still a small amount that can cause some drag on these low orbit satellites, so they need a boost every now and then to keep in orbit. Aurora's (northern or southern lights) also occur here.
