What kind of satellites help people stay in touch and relay important information around the globe?

Communications satellites, abbreviated as "comsats".


What are facts about satellites?

Satellites send information. They can also take pictures of different items. Also, Satellites can help stranded boaters as well. They can also relay signals, which is what makes satellite T.V. possible.


What does the thalamus relay information to?

All the brain lobes except the olfactory cortex.


Was sputnik a communications satellite?

Not as we know them today. Sputnik 1 sent a radio beep, but that was about it. It couldn't relay information as current communications satellites do.


Why are many satellites geo stationary?

Because they only need to transmit to certain parts of the planet. TV relay satellites for example - need to stay in one place to beam the pictures back to earth. If they orbited the earth, the signal would be lost as it crossed the horizon. Another example is the global GPS system. The satellites that provide the information for GPS must remain in one place - otherwise they wouldn't give accurate information to the user.


How satellite communication is different from communication relay?

For communication satellites the range is much higher than that of communication relay. Communication Satellite can cover up to several thousands of kilometers. For communication relay, the uplink and the downlink frequency is the same. But for communication satellites the uplink and the downlink frequencies are different in order to avoid interference.


Why are satellite used to relay radio waves?

Satellites are used to relay radio waves to the other side of the world because radio waves cannot travel directly through the Earth.


Why does a satellite travel over different parts of the earth?

Because most satellites are not 'geostationary'. A geostationary satellite orbits the Earth at the same speed that the Earth spins on its axis - such as the GPS grid, or TV relay satellites. Most satellites travel faster or slower than the Earth spins.

How do satellites and computers work together to produce images of earth?

I have the same question in the textbook the answer is that satellites use sensors to detect changes in the wavelength of light that is reflected from earth surface. They send this information to computers on Earth, which process into images.AdditionallyEarly satellite communication used radio-transmitters to transfer imagery and data to earth ground stations. Some fixed satellites today use microwave radio relay technology to communicate with the ground which is complementary to that of communication cables.Some of the commercial satellites that capture imagery of the Earth include GeoEye and DigitalGlobe, which provide the imagery used by Google Maps, Google Earth, and others.
