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.
How many functional satellites orbit earth?
At present there are around 24-32 satellites orbiting in medium earth orbit(11,000 miles)more the satellites more accurate navigation is produced.
What layer of the atmosphere is satellites located?
If they are in the atmosphere (low earth orbit), satellites are in the ionosphere. If they are in higher orbits, satellites are considered to be outside the atmosphere.
Medium earth orbit satellites?
With large number of low-earth-orbit satellites and the geo-synchronous orbit stuffed full of communications satellites, there aren't all THAT many "medium" altitude satellites. But there are some. The GPS navigation satellites, for example, are in highly inclined 12-hour orbits, and an unknown number of military "spy" satellites are in that middle range.
What are examples of satellites?
Most moons orbiting the various planets of our solar system are considered "satellites" - more specifically, "natural satellites". In addition, the more general use applies to the various space modules, etc., orbiting around the earth or around other planets of the solar system. As they are the result of human device, they are considered, "artificial Satellites". Sputnik 1, as the very first of these, acts as prime example.

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
Which heavenly bodies revolve around a planet?
Satellites, can either be natural satellites (for example; Earth's moon), or man made satellites (for example; communication satellites).
The planet with the most satellites?
Earth. Earth has one natural satellite, the moon, which is in orbit around the earth. There are around 3000 man made satellites currently in orbit. Jupiter has the most natural satellites (moons), over 60 have been confirmed. It has no man made satellites in orbit around it, but did have one between 1995 and 2003, an orbiter called Galileo.
Have any man-made satellites been sent to the planet earth?
Since we live ON the Earth, all satellites WE have sent have been sent FROM the Earth, and circle around it.
