how far a science satellite should be from the earth's surface.
1 answer
That depends upon what they want to observe. The orbit should be at least 200 miles above the Earth's surface. Satellites in lower-altitude orbits return to Earth and burn up within ten years, due to upper atmospheric air friction.
