In 1957, Russia launched the first satellite into space, named Sputnik 1. Since then human interest in space has increased and then gradually space agencies of different countries have sent satellites into space at different times. Today, communication, entertainment, security are almost all dependent on these satellites. But do you know how many satellites are currently orbiting the earth? According to scientific data, there are currently about 6,000 artificial satellites orbiting the Earth. But only 40 percent of them are active. And the rest is orbiting the earth as space waste.
