âYou let your tour guide know how you much you enjoyed the experience they provided by your tip; 15% is average. Carriage Drivers: Similar to walking tours, when you pay $85 for a horse & buggy ride in St. Augustine, itâs hard to know how much to tip.
These objects are. launched into space and orbit Earth, or. another body in space, and carry instru-. ments for collecting information and. communicating it back to Earth. There are approximately 3,000 satellites operating. in Earth orbit, according to the US Government. There are another 8,000 dead satellites and rocket. parts in orbit. Smaller orbital debris or âspace junkâ. is of growing concern as it can damage active sat-. ellites. There are currently over 20,000 pieces of. trackable debris 3.6 inches (10cm) or larger result-. ing mostly from explosions and collisions.
How many active volcanoes are there? The absolute number of volcanoes that exists depends on your definition: active only, active, dormant plus extinct volcanoes? And even if we decide on a definition, nobody has really counted all of the volcanoes, especially the tens on thousands on the sea floor. The best guess is 1511 volcanoes have erupted in the last 10,000 years and should be considered active. This number is from the Smithsonian Institution book, âVolcanoes of the World: Second Editionâ compiled by Tom Simkin and Lee Siebert.
