The point Earth is farthest away from the Moon in its orbit is called what?

The point in the orbit of the moon or of an artificial satellite that is most distant from the center of the earth is called the 'apogee'.


What is the earths nearest natural satellite?

The Earth's nearest natural satellite is the Moon. It is about 384,400 kilometers (238,855 miles) away from Earth on average.


Why at height the artificial sateillte not pulled toward the earth?

The satellite is being pulled by the earths gravity all of the time, but the satellite also has an orbital velocity, meaning that is is travelling at high speed. These two opposing forces balance out, the 'sideways' speed of the satellite wants to take it away into space, but the gravity of the earth is always pulling it in. The satellite maintains its speed as there there are no frictional forces to slow it down in space, so it maintains an orbit.


What is a moon that is between earth and sun?

A moon that is located between the Earth and the Sun would be considered a new moon. During this phase, the side of the Moon that is receiving sunlight is facing away from Earth, making it appear dark or invisible from our perspective.


Why do the satellites not fall while revolving around the earth?

. The speed of the satellite is adjusted so that it falls to earth at the same rate that the curve of the earth falls away from the satellite. The satellite is perpetually falling, but it never hits the ground!

From earth one satellite appears to overtake another the faster satellite is?

The faster satellite appears to overtake another satellite when observed from Earth. This is because the faster satellite covers a greater distance in the same amount of time, causing it to catch up to and pass the slower satellite.


How far away is the farthest satellite?

The earth is a planet. An earth satellite is an artificial satellite that orbits the earth A geostationary satellite is an earth satellite that orbits at a height (approximately 22,000 miles) precisely determined to ensure that the satellite remains over the same spot on the earth's surface at all times, thus appearing from the earth to be stationary in the sky.


Can you see the Apollo lander from earth?

No you can not see the moon landing sites with your naked eye from earth.


Is moon a planet or satellite?

The Moon is a natural satellite of Earth. It orbits the Earth, just as other moons orbit planets. It is not classified as a planet because it does not directly orbit the Sun.


What is the speed of a satellite that moves in an eliptical orbit around the earth?

If a satellite is in an elliptical orbit around the Earth, the Earth will be at one of the focii. The speed of the satellite will then constantly be changing. It will move the fastest when it is nearest to the Earth (perigee) and slowest when it is furthest away (apogee).
