Why don't satellites in orbit fall to the ground why don't the fly off in space?
that is because the 0 gravity keeps it in space and the orbit brings them around without knocking them down or anywhere else
Why don't satellites fly into space?
Satellites, by definition, are in orbit. Which means that they're circling their host (planet). IF you were to increase their speed enough, they would. (And if you slowed it enough, then they would fall to the ground.)
How fast does the space station fly?
The space station does NOT fly. IT is in space and there is no are for it to fly in. The space station is in Earth Orbit moving at 7.66 kilometres per second.
Do nukes fly in space?
yes they do. when they are launched they achieve orbit then go to there target. they can be targeted in space if they need to.
Should satellites fly on people?
No people should fly on satellites.

How low can satellites fly in the atmosphere?
about 350 miles is where the international space station is.
Where does a space shuttle fly to?
space shuttles fly out to space. For example, the moon or just to orbit Earth. The next mission is trying to get to mars!
Do nukes fly in space?
yes they do. when they are launched they achieve orbit then go to there target. they can be targeted in space if they need to.
Where does a space shuttle go?
hooks up to the space station they just fly into space, where they are put into orbit around earth. when in orbit, they can hook up to flying objects to do repairs or building.
Where do geostationary satellites usually orbit?
SatellitesSatellites orbit in outer space, not in the earth. They are sent to outer space where the gravitational pull of the earth pulls them around, just as the earth is pulled around the sun in a similar manner. The layer is the exosphere. It greatly depends on what the satellite is for and who owns it how far up it orbits. Imaging satellites need to be close to the Earth, so they orbit about 130 miles up. Communications satellites are generally at 23,000 miles up. GPS satellites are up about 13,000 miles.
Should satellites fly on people?
No people should fly on satellites.
What if a space prode did not get to the obit?
Then it would either fly off into outer space or crash into the body it was supposed to orbit.
When did Alan Shepherd fly in space?
He flew in space on 5/5/1961. It was a sub orbit flight.
Why don't satellies in orbit fall to the ground why don't they fly off into space?
Because it have some gravity from space.
