Satellites may fall out of the sky because they get too close to Earth. In that case, Earth overwhelmed the power of the satellite's propelling system and slowly but surely dragged the satellite into the Earth's atmosphere.
No, the Earth can not fall from the sky. That is because the sky is all around the Earth and is really called the atmosphere. If the world would fall for some reason, the sky would fall with it.
There are thousands of satellites currently orbiting the Earth. The exact number can vary, as new satellites are launched and old ones are decommissioned regularly.
Yes, satellites move quickly across the sky, traveling at speeds of thousands of kilometers per hour in orbit around the Earth. This rapid movement is necessary to maintain their orbits and stay in communication with ground stations.
Yes. There are many satellites that are geostationary. That is they remain fixed over the same relative position of the Earth. In the night sky, it would appear to not move in relation to the background stars and other stellar bodies.
You can see satellites orbiting. If you go on a clear night to somewhere which is far from city lights, you will sometimes see dots moving across the sky - these are satellites reflecting sunlight.
about a 100 basket-ball sized satelittes fall every year.
Cause gravity.
explosions if they fall out of orbit towards earth
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.
the sky never did fall and it never will the sky can not fall. it is impossible! they sky is made up of gasses. gass can not fall. so do not worry about the sky falling. it is just a myth.
Satellites orbit the earth for a few years then fall to earth however they are directed to fall to the sea
No, the sky will never fall apart.
No, the Earth can not fall from the sky. That is because the sky is all around the Earth and is really called the atmosphere. If the world would fall for some reason, the sky would fall with it.
No things can fall from the sky though.
I am sorry to say that pizza does not fall from the sky.
yes because it could cause a higher risk for asteroids to hit them and both come from the sky trying to kill you!
