What else can I help you with?
How many artificial satellites are in orbit around earth?
yes
Some satellites are put into an orbit around the earths poles what is this type of orbit called?
A satellite orbiting around the Earth's poles is in a polar orbit. This type of orbit allows the satellite to pass over different parts of the Earth as it rotates below. Polar orbits are often used for Earth observation and surveillance satellites.
Does the sun have satilites?
No, the sun does not have satellites. Satellites are objects that orbit around a celestial body, like Earth, whereas the sun is a star at the center of our solar system. The planets, including Earth, orbit around the sun.
What is path satellite takes around earth?
Satellites typically orbit Earth in elliptical or circular paths. The specific path depends on the satellite's purpose and altitude. Low Earth orbit satellites circle the Earth more quickly, while geostationary satellites orbit at the same rate as the Earth's rotation, appearing to stay stationary in the sky.
Four identical satellites are in orbit around the Earth. Their distance from Earth is given in the table. For which satellite is the gravitational pull of Earth the strongest?
Satellites A (APEX)
Where do communications satellites orbit?
Communication satellites orbit around the Earth.Communication satellites orbit around the Earth.Communication satellites orbit around the Earth.Communication satellites orbit around the Earth.
Do satellites in orbit around Earth continuously fall toward earth?
Satellites orbit the earth for a few years then fall to earth however they are directed to fall to the sea
How many artificial satellites are in orbit around earth?
yes
How satellites stay in orbit?
The reason that satellites stay in orbit around Earth is because of two factors. Velocity and the gravitational pull between the satellite and the Earth.
How are satellites held in orbit around Earth?
the atmosphere of gravity pulls it.

What is the differences between the moon and satellites?
The word Moon is a name given to the natural satellite in orbit around the Earth. We attribute this name to most objects large enough to see in orbit around other planets. In this way Moons and Natural Satellites are one in the same. Artifical Satellites are what we put into orbit around the earth IE GPS Satellites, but are man made.
Do satellites us on earth orbit anything?
NO! they just are up there floating around they are not large enough to have an orbit.
What is the force that makes satellites orbit at the same height around the earth?
Gravity keeps satellites in orbit. The closer you are to the Earth, the faster you have to go to maintain your orbit. At low Earth orbit, the altitude of the Space Station, you make an orbit every 90 minutes. At the Moon's distance you need over 27 days to go around the Earth. In-between there is an altitude which matches the rate of the Earth's rotation. Many satellites orbit at this altitude.
Does the sun have satilites?
No, the sun does not have satellites. Satellites are objects that orbit around a celestial body, like Earth, whereas the sun is a star at the center of our solar system. The planets, including Earth, orbit around the sun.
How many miles above the Earth are satellites typically positioned?
Satellites are typically positioned around 22,236 miles above the Earth in a geostationary orbit.
What are the forces holding in orbit around the sun and the moon in orbit around the earth?
the forces holding every thing toghter is gravity
