I think you mean, :why does the orbit of satellites, etc. look like a sine wave? Well, every orbit around the earth looks like a circular (or elliptical ring) whose center (or focus) is at the center of the earth. An orbit exactly above the equator is one such orbit, but any orbit can be tilted as long as the center (or focus) stays at the earth's center and the whole orbit is flat like a disk. On various maps this makes the orbit look like a wave, but on a globe it stays a flat circle (or ellipse).
What else can I help you with?
How do space shuttles move in orbit?
due to the gravitational force the space shuttle get rest on its positioned the installation of satellite or any transponders,etc., the shuttle got fixed in the orbit generation of the zero gravity motor which is an stepper motor with zero resistive flexibility moves the shuttle with the orbit path above 16,500 thousand km above the ionosphere.
How many space shuttles have landed on the moon?
Six space shuttles have landed on the moon. The space shuttles, however, were a part of the Space Shuttle program and were not designed to operate on the moon’s surface. They were primarily used for missions in low Earth orbit.
Where have space shuttles been?
Space shuttles have been to low Earth orbit, carrying astronauts and satellites for missions such as servicing the Hubble Space Telescope and building the International Space Station. They have also traveled to higher altitudes to deploy scientific instruments and conduct experiments.
How much time does it take for a space shuttle to get to the moon?
Space shuttles were built for low earth orbit. Not to goto the moon
How do space shuttles get into orbit?
To lift the 4.5 million pound shuttle from the pad to orbit (115 to 400 miles) above the Earth, the shuttle uses two solid rocket boosters, three main engines of the orbiter, the external fuel tank and the orbital maneuvering system on the orbiter. The solid rockets provide most of the main force or thrust needed to lift the space shuttle off the launch pad.
Do Space shuttles orbit in the thermosphere?
not regulary. they mostly orbit the mesosphere
How do shuttles land on other planets?
They don't. The shuttles were designed for Earth Orbit only.
Which atmospheric layer is where space shuttles orbit?
The atmosphere is divided in to five layers. These are Troposhere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere and Exosphere. The space shuttles orbit in thermosphere.The atmosphere is divided in to five layers. These are Troposhere, Stratospere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere and Exosphere. The space shuttles orbit in thermosphere.
Where did spaceship Columbia travel to?
Columbia was a Space Shuttle. Space Shuttles travel to an orbit around the Earth and return.
Why cant space shuttles be made larger and larger?
Simply because of the amount of energy required to put it into orbit.

Which orbits the earth space shuttle or space station?
Well both do...the shuttles go in to orbit and return (at least they used to when NASA was still flying them), the ISS is left in orbit

Who made the first space shuttle succesfully?
The USA's Enterprise was the first shuttle but was built in 1976 as a test platform for the future shuttle fleet. The Challenger was the first to achieve Earth orbit in 1981. Of the Soviet fleet of shuttles, only one acheved Earth orbit and successful reentry, but this occured much later, when the USSR decided the US shuttles represented a serious security threat. The Soviet shuttles were moth-balled upon the collapse of the CCCP (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics). No other countries have built successful shuttles.
