how many satellites present in the space
A minimum of 24 operational Navstar satellites are required for the GPS system to work effectively. These satellites are strategically positioned in orbit to ensure global coverage and accurate positioning for GPS receivers on Earth.
GPS satellites do not 'find' anything, that is not their purpose.
It depends on which satellite you are talking about. However YES, it is closer than any geostationary weather satellite and it is closer than any GPS satellites.
A minimum of 4 satellites is needed to obtain a full GPS signal. These satellites are used to triangulate your position accurately on Earth.
They operate at an altitude of 20,200 kilometers (12,600 miles)
A GPS works by satellites that are located in outer space. These satellites are connected with cameras that show the whole earth. You GPS and the satellites systems are working together to provide maps for you.
First was sputnik, but anything from the Direct TV and XM radio satellites and telecommunication, GPS to the International Space Station are artificial satellites in Earth Orbit. There are artificial satellites currently in orbit around other planets as well.
There are currently 30 healthy GPS satellites in orbit.
As of 2021, there are over 3,000 artificial satellites orbiting the Earth. Some well-known satellites include the International Space Station (ISS), Hubble Space Telescope, and Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites.
I haven't get the correct names of the satellites that Indian Government is going to launch but i know they go to launch satellites regarding "GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM". The Government is going to launch around 7 satellites by 2010. The Indian Government wants to develope its own GPS. Now the GPS is under the control of U.S.Government,it has around 20 satellites of its own. The Russian Government has around 24 satellites.
Three well-known man-made satellites are the International Space Station (ISS), the Hubble Space Telescope, and the Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites.

Geostationary satellites are the ones used for GPS satellites.
