Challenge Question #2

This is Gabriel Brotman, one of the eagle team members from Mrs. Berger's 5th
grade class.
If the satellite goes around the Earth every 101 minutes, I think that it would
be traveling at about 248.32 miles per minute.
I think that the distance around the equator is 25,000 miles so I divided that
by 101 to get distance per minute.
