Maurice, you are a moron, and a pathetic loser. I already said that the way that satellites stay up is by maintaining their velocity. The magnitude of velocity is speed, in case you don't understand the English language out there in Maori-ville. The closer the satellite is to the earth, the faster it needs to go to maintain its orbit. Note that the thrusters don't need to point downwards to maintain the satellite's velocity. Neither does the satellite require wings to fly.-g- Message 16261972 I am tired of waiting for you to guess why the mass of the satellite matters, so I will tell you. The greater the mass, the greater the power required in order for the satellite to maintain the proper velocity.
