Why can't we see satellites orbiting?
You can see satellites orbiting. If you go on a clear night to somewhere which is far from city lights, you will sometimes see dots moving across the sky - these are satellites reflecting sunlight.
Do Orbiting satellites use geothermal energy panels?
No, geothermal means heat from under the ground. Satellites use solar panels.
How do satellites transfer information to television?
satellites must transmit all their information to the earth down .satellites transmit information gathered by their sensors during each contact with the ground station. They contact the station using a large dish antennae which is situated on earth, at the site of the ground station. During the contacts between the satellite and ground station the satellites usually transmit information about the state of its various subsystems abd its position in space.
How is the information from radar and satellites different from the information from ground stations?
look in your book
How can satellites see through clouds and smoke?
they can see through clouds but not smoke.
Space satellites are powered by what?
they are powered by ground control on earth

How do satellites pass information to people on the ground?
By means of radio communication.
What would be useful for studying cloud cover?
Satellites and ground stations.
What is the best method of verifying data gathered by satellites?
ground truthing
Data is sent to earth from satellites using what type of numbers?
Data is sent to earth from satellites using TIROS. This is data given from the ground.

What advantage do weather satellites have over ground based weather stations?
They are not affected by conditions on the ground. Ground-based stations could be destroyed by severe weather (such as tornadoes or hurricanes). Satellites don't get affected by Earth's weather. Of course - satellites are at risk of meteor strike and solar radiation - but there's less chance of them being damaged.
Are the landsat satellites positioned 700 kilometres above the ground?
Closer to 900km.
