Satellites in low Earth orbit are typically around 200-2,000 kilometers (125-1,240 miles) above Earth's surface, while geostationary satellites are about 35,786 kilometers (22,236 miles) away. Other satellites can be at varying distances depending on their specific orbit and mission.
All the gas giants are known to have rings; Saturn's are by far the most prominent. As far as moons are concerned, Jupiter and Saturn are in a virtual tie; both of them have around 60 known satellites. ______________________ If you include artificial satellites, Earth leads the pack. With only natural satellites counted, Jupiter has more moons (63 and counting) while Saturn has most of the rings. Jupiter and Uranus have very small and dim ring systems.
Wikipedia lists 18 songs entitled "So Far Away." The most famous was sung by Carole King, unless you're thinking of I Ran (So Far Away) by Flock of Seagulls
Most of the satellites are for communication - such as tv/radio and mobile phones. There are also the satellites of the Global Positioning System and military satellites.
Luxembourg has the most number of satellites per population, with a high number of satellites for every 1,000 people compared to other countries.
for giving information to places on earth that is far far away.

Satellites in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) are typically around 160-2,000 kilometers away from the Earth's surface. Geostationary satellites, on the other hand, orbit at an altitude of about 35,786 kilometers above the equator.
no, mercury and venus are the only two planets that do not have moons.
many songs are probably called far away but the most known song of today would most likely be far away by nickelback :)
If they were too far out, then they would not be very useful as weather satellites, because they would orbit too slowly, and they would be too far away to make out the weather.
Navigation. The Global Positioning System (GPS) provides location and time information for anywhere on the Earth via a series of satellites in geostationary orbits. The time it takes for the driver/pilot to send a signal to the satellites and receive it back again can be used to work out how far away you are from the satellites, which is used to work out where you are.
Yes, Jupiter is the planet with the most satellites - 63 of them
In a sense they are continually falling to Earth, but they are so far away that the curve of their fall is big enough to follow the circumference of the Earth.
You probably mean to ask about natural satellites as opposed to artificial satellites. In terms of neutrality, all satellites are neutral. In any event, the planet Jupiter has the most natural satellites, of any planet in our solar system. The planet Earth has the most artificial satellites.

They have the most of satellites
