Satellites aren't pulled to Earth by gravity because they are in a state of free fall, traveling at a high tangential speed. This speed allows them to continuously "fall" around the Earth instead of directly towards it. The balance between their forward motion and the pull of gravity creates a stable orbit, keeping them at a consistent altitude rather than crashing back to the surface.

What causes a satellites to be pulled to earth?
Gravity.
Why don't satellites get pulled towards the Earth's surface?
Satellites remain in orbit around the Earth due to a balance between the gravitational pull of the Earth and the satellite's velocity. The satellite's forward velocity allows it to continue moving tangentially to the Earth's surface, preventing it from being pulled towards the surface. This balance enables satellites to maintain their orbit without falling back to Earth.
What force acts to pull natural and artificial satellites to earth?
Gravity. A natural satellite aka asteroid, then meteor, then meteorite all get pulled to Earth through gravity. With artificial sattelites it's tge same thing, gravity. The difference is we launch our satellites to the perfect zone around the planet where they become trapped in orbit around us. Sometimes things occur that bump these satellites out of their orbit and gravity takes over, pulling the satellite back to the surface.
Is the moon pulled by the earth's gravity?
Yes. the mutually attracting forces of gravity hold the moon and earth together and cause the earth's tidal forces.
The moon has no gravity but the rocket lands on it How?
The moon does have gravity, just less than Earth's. When a rocket lands on the moon, it is pulled towards the moon's surface by its gravity, similar to how objects are pulled towards Earth. The rocket's engines are used to slow down its descent and land safely on the moon's surface.
What causes a satellites to be pulled to earth?
Gravity.
Are satellites in high earth orbit pulled to earth by gravity?
yes.
Why don't satellites get pulled towards the Earth's surface?
Satellites remain in orbit around the Earth due to a balance between the gravitational pull of the Earth and the satellite's velocity. The satellite's forward velocity allows it to continue moving tangentially to the Earth's surface, preventing it from being pulled towards the surface. This balance enables satellites to maintain their orbit without falling back to Earth.
Which source of gravity is maintaining all four satellites around the earth?
Satellites of the Earth are held in their orbits by the Earth's gravity. That includes the Moon and all the artificial satellites etc. that are up there.

Is there gravity where satellites are at?
Yes there are enough gravitational forces to keep the satellites orbiting earth.
What pulls satellites towards the center of the earth?
Gravity .
What things are pulled toward earth?
gravity
Are satellites orbiting earths gravity?
No. They orbit Earth; and the reason they orbit is because of gravity.
Gas molecules in the atmosphere are pulled toward the earth by?

What theory says the Moon was pulled from the Earth?
