Satellite
A satellite is an object that orbits another object. In space, satellites may be made by man, or they may be natural. Of course, the market we research on is based on artificial satellites in this report. Artificial satellites come from more than 50 countries and have used the satellite launching capabilities of ten nations. A few hundred satellites are currently working, but thousands of unused satellites and satellite fragments orbit the Earth as space debris. The largest satellite is the International Space Station, which was put together by several different countries (including the organizations of NASA, ESA, JAXA and RKA).
