1. Satellites orbit Earth in specific paths to stay in space.
2. Low Earth Orbit is close to Earth and used for imaging and research.
3. Medium Earth Orbit is higher and mainly used for GPS systems.
4. Geostationary Orbit keeps the satellite fixed above one spot on Earth.
5. Polar orbit satellites move over the poles to scan the entire Earth.
6. Sun-synchronous orbits let satellites see the same area at the same time daily.
7. Satellites stay in orbit due to the balance between gravity and speed.
8. The higher the orbit, the longer the satellite takes to circle Earth.
9. Communication and weather satellites often use geostationary orbits.
10. Choosing the right orbit depends on what the satellite needs to do.
