How many sattelites are in space above the Earth?
348508
More than 8,927 man-made objects of which greater than 2,671 are satellites. There are over 100,000 pieces of debris larger than a dime.
394411
Seems to me there only 10 right now, with Xena maintaining a present orbit of 97AU.  Unless you count Sedna at 90AU(and the jury is still out on whether it is large enough to qualify)

Yes, you can- but it takes patience and a clear sky or planning.  A very interesting form of sattelite watching are "Flares" from the Iridium satellite fleet.  These satellites have mirrors which occasionally reflect the sun's light to earth. \nhttp://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap980402.html\nTo find out when are where to catch one of these flares, go to this site:\nhttp://www.heavens-above.com/\n\nFor a more traditional satellite viewing experience, try starting out looking for the international space station.  NASA has a good site that lets you know when and where to look for it:\nhttp://spaceflight.nasa.gov/realdata/sightings/

in our solar system: 9\n\neven though larger bodies exist in our solar system, we're too used to having 9 planets to ever change.

Space officially begins 50 miles above sea level. That is when one leaves earth's atmosphere and enters the void of space.

Right now there are officially 9.  Depending on what we decide in the next year or so that number will change to 8, stay 9, go to 10, or even larger.  An object larger than Pluto has been found, but we have not granted it official status as a planet.  Don't expect this issue to be resolved any time soon, we've more or less "tabled" the issue until our general meeting in August.

There are about 2800 stars that can be seen with the naked eye, if the conditions are ideal (no light pollution, super dark night with clear sky, and assuming you can only see part of the sky as a big part is on the other side of the planet) see link #1.\nHowever, if you want to know how many are there that could be visible if you had the most powerful telescope anyone can imagine, then the number is a bit more: 70 sextillion (see link #2).\nOur galaxy, the Milkyway, contains about 100 billion stars, and there are more galaxies in the universe than there are stars in a galaxy.
969966
There are more than 800 active satellites currently in orbit. They represent four percent of the total number of objects currently cataloged by the U.S. space surveillance network; the rest includes abandoned satellites, spent rocket boosters, and other debris.

Either only a few or you can't do it.  A lot depends on whether you think high latitude areas are part of the globe.\n\nIf you don't then you can cover pretty much the whole planet with only about six satellites although you might for various reasons want more (there's enough room in GEO for thousands of satellites but getting that many orbital slots from the ITU might be a bid hard).\n\nIf you do demand the ability to send signals to those in Antarctica or northern Siberia then you'll probably need satellites in Molnyia orbits to augment them although those are going to be niche markets.  I suspect 12 in Molnyia orbit should be enough for pretty much full coverage of the high latitudes.

There are 192 member countries recognized by the United Nations, and 193 recognized by the state department of the U.S. There are currently 9 (the number is disputed) planets if you count Pluto and 8 if you don't, but that is just in our solar system. There are a lot more planets out there.

The defining line between our sky and outer space has been generally accepted to be around 50 miles above the earth. It was established during the first test flights in the 1940s by Chuck Yeager and Scott Crossfield, among others.

Sol (our solar system) consists of 9 planets, over 140 moons (to date) and several small cosmic objects (comets and asteroids).\n\nMercury (0 moons)\nVenus (0 moons)\nEarth (1 moon)\nMars (2 moons)\nJupiter (63 moons as of 2004)\nSaturn (34 moons)\nUranus (21 named moons, 6 unnamed moons)\nNeptune (8 named moons, 5 unnamed moons)\nPluto (1 moon)\n\nThere have been discoveries of more "planetary objects" beyond Pluto, but they have not been declared to be planets in the same sense as the others.

the radius of the Earth 6375.654784689 Km. There are many living things on it and it will not be ever counted exactly.
973173
There are more stars than we can count.  Most of them have planets.   Most of those planets have moons.

THere is an argument among astromoners as to whether classify the bodies beyond pluto as planets... consider that in the asteroid belt there are many objects orbiting the sun... do we call them all planets?\n\nCurrently there are officially only 9 planets:\nMercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.

Thousands. It's a little known fact that every satellite in orbit is manned by dozens of human workers, sometimes hundreds.
