Francesco Redi, the founder of the experimental biology, is recognized to be one of the greatest biologists of all time. A biologist, or biological scientist, is a scientist who studies living organisms, often in the context of their environment. Biologists involved in fundamental research attempt to explore and further explain the underlying mechanisms that govern the functioning of organisms. Biologists involved in applied research attempt to develop or improve more specific processes and understanding, in fields such as medicine, industry and agriculture.
Satellites move in a path around the Earth called an orbit. Every satellite must have an orbital path (remember, satellites that travel into deep space to look at distant planets are not true satellites, they are in fact space probes), and the type of path it takes is determined by the physics involved. satellite's orbit works because of a balance between two forces. The orbit is a combination of the satellite's velocity-the speed it is travelling in a straight line-and the force of the Earth's gravitational pull on the satellite.
The actual satellite orbit that is chosen will depend on factors including its function, and the area it is to serve. In some instances the satellite orbit may be as low as 100 miles (160 km) for a Low Earth Orbit LEO, whereas others may be over 22 000 miles (36000 km) high as in the case of a GEostationary Orbit GEO.The satellite may even have an elliptical rather than a circular orbit. This is generally taken to be 3960 miles or 6370 km. 2  Orbit velocity: For a circular orbit it is always the same. 3  However in the case of an elliptical one this is not the case as the speed changes dependent upon the position in the orbit.
