You will get uninformed people who say no. However, the ultimate resolution of a spy satellite is good enough to see you naked from space. If fact, the operators of the Keyhole series of US orbital reconnaisance satellites exchange coordinates as to where the best nude beaches are. So smile. ---- True enough, but keep this in mind: The Keyhole Sats (of Enemy of the State fame) are mid-70s technology at best. So, brush your teeth too! :)

Why doun't satellites fall from the sky?

Interestingly enough the sattelites are doing their level best at falling from the sky. The whole idea is that at orbital velocity the objects move forward fast enough that they continously miss the Earth as they fall down. In the ideal case satellites are in orbit. This means that they circle the Earth at a specific speed and a specific height. Because satellites aren't in Earth's atmosphere nothing slows them down. If they did slow down it would reduce the height they orbit at. If the height were reduced they would encounter thicker air which would slow them down more, which would lower their height more. This cycle would continue until they crashed. In actuality the satellites do slow down very slowly because the air is not totally absent. Eventually all satellites will fall from the sky.

Why do all satellites face south?

This allows them to see the entire surface of the Earth. The Earth is rotating East to West. (Or West to East if you were the satellite.) If you placed a satellite into an East-West orbit, it would not see the polar regions. If it were high enough (geo-stationary), it would only see one spot on the Earth. By using North-South (polar) orbits, the satellites will, after several orbits, be able to see the entire surface of the Earth.
