Satellites operate outside most of the atmosphere, so there is very little resistance to their motion. They are launched into orbit horizontally at speeds of at least 17,500 miles per hour (mph) but remain under the influence of Earth's gravity. When the calculations are done correctly, there is a tug of war between the tendency to speed off in a straight line, and Earth's attraction, which ...
