What else can I help you with?
A wave travels through space on its way to a communications satellite. What kind of wave is it most likely to be?
The wave making the trip to the communications satellite will be a radio wave, which is an electromagnetic wave. Electromagnetic waves can move through the vacuum of space because they do not need a medium in which to travel. We usually use the microwave band of frequencies to communicate with satellites.
How does a communications satellite work?
A communications satellite (sometimes abbreviated to COMSAT) is an artificial satellite stationed in space for the purpose of telecommunications.For more info on this, look at the website below.
Can micro waves travel through a vacuum?
Yes, microwaves can travel through a vacuum because they are a form of electromagnetic radiation, which can propagate through empty space. This is why microwave communication works in space and is used in satellite communications.
Is the Hubble SpaceTelescope a satellite or a space probe?
