The Physics of Orbits
... For satellites in orbit it is Gravity that provides the Centripetal Force. If “falling” is accelerating due to Gravity then satellites are falling, but the acceleration changes the direction rather than the speed. A satellite orbiting Earth is falling. It just keeps missing the Earth! Because the Ea ...
