I think 13,000 seems quite a lot but I know there are quite a lot in space. 1 crashed into the Pacific the other day. I dont think earth needs 13,000 satellites, after all what do we need them all for? I expect NASA and other space companies have a lot up there and obviously TV channels and phone companies have them up there. I dont know exactly but it wouldnt suprise me if there was a lot of satelllites, 2,000 seems more likely.
Satellites are in space not in countries.
Space junk,meteorites and solar wind
millions, if you count natural satellites.
they are powered by ground control on earth
Though now retired, the space shuttle was able to 'capture' satellites for repair and replace then in their correct orbit.
are space satellites input or output devices
No. Earth's only naturall satellite, the moon, is 4.5 to 4.6 billion years old. None of the artificial satellites are more than 60 years old.
ther are 4 satellites
Satellites are in space not in countries.
Yes it can and has.
A space satellite is any man-made object that orbits Earth or another celestial body, while an Earth satellite specifically orbits Earth. Additionally, space satellites can include artificial satellites launched into space for various purposes, while Earth satellites can refer to natural objects like the Moon that orbit our planet.
Once in space, most satellites obtain their power from the Sun using solar panels. Satellites travelling deep into space often carry additional nuclear power supplies.
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.
Manned satellites are spacecraft that are designed to carry astronauts into space and support human presence in orbit. They can be used for activities such as scientific research, space exploration, and servicing of other satellites. Manned satellites provide a platform for humans to live and work in space for extended periods of time.
around 900
space ships and satellites
No there are no satellites that the space program can reuse. This is why there is so much space and orbital debris in the solar system. Space and orbital debris means space and orbital junk or pollution.
