What are the different artificial satellites launched into orbit?
The different artificial satellites launched are Low Earth Orbiting Satellites for Remote sensing, Medium Earth Orbiting Satellites like GPS , Geo Stationary Orbiting Satellites for Communication and Molnia Satellites again for Communication. These are the different artificial Satellite orbiting the Planet Earth.
What is orbiting the earth and taking pictures of it?
A space station and many satellites.
Moon is to satellite as earth is to What?
If the Moon is to a satellite, then Earth is to a planet. The Moon is a natural satellite orbiting Earth, just like artificial satellites orbit Earth. Similarly, planets are natural satellites orbiting stars, like Earth orbits the Sun.
What names five artificial satellites that are orbing the earth?
Five artificial satellites that are orbiting the earth are ACRIMSAT, HAMSAT, OSCAR 3, PicoSAT and RADARSAT. There are scores of satellites that orbit the Earth for one reason or another.
Why moon is only the natural satellite of earth?
Because all other satellites orbiting the earth are man-made.

These are the different artificial Satellite orbiting the Planet Earth.
Where did astronomers first go to try to understand Earth's origins?
To their observatories
What were the US satellites?
There are over 1000 operational satellites orbiting the Earth, and probably 10,000 pieces of "space junk" also orbiting the Earth.
Where do you can find satellites orbiting earth?
the termosphere
Is there gravity where satellites are at?
Yes there are enough gravitational forces to keep the satellites orbiting earth.
Why use satellites and earth orbiting observatories to study the universe at x ray or gamma ray wave lengths?
Those radiations hardly reach Earth's surface, because they are absorbed by the atmosphere.
What happens to old satellites?
Old satellites orbiting near the Earth eventually fall back into the atmosphere and burn. Satellites orbiting farther away stay in orbit indefinitely.
What layer of the atmosphere has artificial satellites orbiting earth in it?
exosphere
Do many atifical satelliltes orbit earth?
2465 artificial satellites orbiting the Earth
What is orbiting the earth and taking pictures of it?
A space station and many satellites.
Which country has the most satellites orbiting earth?
The united states of America
Why are moons called naturual satellites?
It is a celestial body orbiting the earth.
