you may not realize it but there are
eight thousand three hundred artificial
satellites orbiting earth right now with
3000 is currently not operational
so how do these stay up orbiting Earth I
mean I think should fall down to two
gripping if you want to escape Earth's
gravity
you have to fire at just over 40,000
comments prayer the point of a session
like though isn't to escape gravity is
to all the earth which means that you
want to have just the right orbital
velocity to balance gravity
if the satellite was to begin to slow
down it was slowly begin to curve
towards Earth and to eventually
colliding with it
this is why you need to have everything
balanced otherwise you end up colliding
with earth
we're going too fast and we'll just fly
away the international space station is
an artificial satellite which you can
see above you and it flies past due to
it being in a low orbit the
International Space Station sure was at
27,000 columns per hour which means it
can all the earth every 90 3 minutes
the average gps satellite which you use
when you try to find your location on
your phone
she was at 14,000 , sprayer which is
slower than the International Space
Station were traveling at a higher
altitude
if you want to look up there at least
for gps satellites somewhere above you
and there's up to 12 above you at one
time
the higher the altitude of the satellite
the slower it can travel to all the
earth
this is due to their being less gravity
attracts you to the further away you get
from Earth
that's why the moon which is our only
natural safe lecture was much slower
than the institution of space station
and the gps satellite pictures who
subscribe and tell your friends about

is growing and we thank you very much
