Is any kind of satellite stationary in the night sky?
Yes, there are some satellites that appear stationary in the night sky. These are known as geostationary satellites, which orbit the Earth at the same speed that the Earth rotates, thereby appearing fixed in the sky relative to an observer on the ground.
Is it possible to see artificial satellite in night sky?
Yes, that is often possible. Preferably go to an area without streetlights and watch the sky. You will soon see fast moving shiny objects. These are satellites.
How many satellites in sky?
There are thousands of satellites currently orbiting the Earth. The exact number can vary, as new satellites are launched and old ones are decommissioned regularly.
How fast do the satellites orbit the earth?
Faster than you
Have you ever witnessed a fast-moving light in the night sky"?
Ah, I see you've caught a glimpse of a majestic shooting star dancing across the night sky! What a lovely sight to behold. Just imagine the wonders and beauty of our universe painting special moments like these for all to see.
Do the stars appear to move across the sky at nightime?
It is not definite that the objects that you saw is satellites, but there is a high percentage that they are. There are TV satellites and others as well. Not every single one of them are from one country though. I saw a ton of them last night and I was overjoyed to see such wonder. I thought they were planets or maybe comets but comets are much faster than the ones you saw and planets don't really move that fast ether. So the chance of them being satellites have increased even more! Hope I've answered your question. Check out other websites to confirm.
How can you tell that a star isn't a satellite?
You can tell a star from a satellite by observing its behavior in the night sky. Stars twinkle due to atmospheric effects, while satellites move steadily and may even reflect sunlight as they travel across the sky. Stars also maintain a fixed position relative to each other, while satellites appear to move independently.

Do satellites move?
ofcourse, they move.
Are satellites fast?
Yes, they are.
Why doun't satellites fall from the sky?
Interestingly enough the sattelites are doing their level best at falling from the sky. The whole idea is that at orbital velocity the objects move forward fast enough that they continously miss the Earth as they fall down. In the ideal case satellites are in orbit. This means that they circle the Earth at a specific speed and a specific height. Because satellites aren't in Earth's atmosphere nothing slows them down. If they did slow down it would reduce the height they orbit at. If the height were reduced they would encounter thicker air which would slow them down more, which would lower their height more. This cycle would continue until they crashed. In actuality the satellites do slow down very slowly because the air is not totally absent. Eventually all satellites will fall from the sky.

How high are the sky broadcast satellites?
22,340 miles above the equator.
How many satellites cross the sky in 1 hour?
I think its about 50..
How fast do the satellites orbit the earth?
Faster than you
Name and position of satellites are in the sky?
Satellites vary in position as they orbit Earth, so it depends on the specific satellite. Common satellite positions include geostationary orbit (22,236 miles above the Equator) and low Earth orbit (a few hundred miles above the Earth). Specific examples include the International Space Station (ISS) and the Hubble Space Telescope.
