An object that has been intentionally placed into orbit
Real World Example
Imagine trying to keep a hula hoop spinning around your waist. Just like you have to give the hula hoop the right amount of speed and direction to keep it circling without falling, an artificial satellite needs to be launched with precise speed and trajectory to maintain its orbit around Earth. The way you continuously adjust your movements to keep the hula hoop in motion is akin to how satellites are carefully positioned and occasionally adjusted to stay in their designated pathways around the planet.
