Yes, it is very possible, although not often done (deliberately). The easiest way is to simply let it crash. The other option is to send another craft up and collect it, although the latter is usually quite expensive compared to just building another and sending it up instead.
They send data about 1-22,000 miles. The moon isn't even millions of miles away, it's about 250,000 miles away, or 1/4 million miles.
They send information by way of radiation, usually radio waves. Radiation is light, most "light" is invisible to us, heat and light are the only kinds we can sense naturally. Radio waves are sent out in highly complex bursts which computers on earth translate into 1s and 0s, which is what computers use for information.
Via radio communication.
The earth is a spherical shape, and they food this out because in the late 20th century, artificial satellites sent back pictures confirming the earths round shape. Much earlier, Aristotle suspected earth was a sphere by observing that earth cast a curves shadow on the moon during an eclipse.
GPS satellites orbit the earth, around 20,000Kms above us. They contain very precise atomic clocks which they use to produce a special timing signal which is then broadcast back to earth. Back on earth, we can use our GPS receivers (Like Sat Nav) to pick up the GPS signals, and by using very clever mathematical algorithms in conjunction with the timing signals we receive from the satellites, calculate our position on the surface of the earth.
In space, there are satellites that take pictures of the weather all around the world. Then they send the photos back to NASA. At NASA, the scientists study the pictures and they can figure out if a storm is coming up.
No. Venus has no natural satellites (moons). Neither does Mercury.
active satellites are receives the transmitted signal from earth ,amplify the signal and transmit it. it is also called as transponders. but passive satellites just receive and transmit the signal.itac as the reflector
Satellites take pictures and accumulate other information into the computer. They analyze the data and send it back to weather stations on earth.
One can find pictures of earth satellites on the NASA Visible Earth online website. NASA Visible Earth is a catalog of NASA images of our home planet, earth. The website "Geology" is where one can also find pictures of earth satellites.
Satellites use the earth's orbit and the earth's gravity to take pictures. The satellites orbit the earth in the same direction that the earth spins. That way the satellites never have to move against the earth's movement to take pictures. There are two kinds of satellites; ones that take pictures that are designed for taking pictures, and ones that are designed for spying. The ones that are designed for spying can magnify what are seeing on earth. Otherwise, the two kinds of satellites work the same way.
Pictures are sent to earth from outer space through the Hubble Telescope and cameras on satellites. The satellites then send the images to NASA computers.
A space station and many satellites.
it also revolves
Google Earth is made of pictures taken from satellites. If your house is new or has been renovated, the satellites may not have taken a picture of it yet.
They are called maps
We send satellites and space probes equipped with cameras into space. The satellites and probes can be sent commands via radio waves, and the equipment then sends back digital photographs via radio as well.
Plenty. Just look Google Earth for the pictures of everything.
Google satellites are closer to the Earth than the NASA satellites are to the moon. And those pictures are pretty good.
the Flat Earth Hypothesis was proven wrong by satellites taking pictures from space
