What is an example of converting nuclear energy to electrical energy?
nuclear power plantnuclear battery (SNAP thermoelectric power source for space vehicles)
Where does a space satellite get its source of electrical energy from?
Either solar energy, or some nuclear reaction.
How do satellites get their energy?
Satellites typically use solar panels to convert sunlight into electricity. This electricity is used to power the satellite's systems and keep it running while in space. Some satellites may also have batteries for storing energy to use when not exposed to sunlight.
Why don't we use nuclear power for space travel?
Nuclear power for space travel is not commonly used due to safety concerns, potential risks of accidents, and the challenges of handling radioactive materials in space. Additionally, there are strict regulations and international treaties that restrict the use of nuclear power in space missions.

Is a space station a satellite or a space probe?
A space station is a satellite.
Is a satellite is considered a space Robot?
A satellite is a Space Robot?
Is a space station a space probe or space satellite?
Satellite- A probe implies probing or traveling through space and not fixed.
What type of satellite provides power for shuttle missions?
Satellites don't provide power for space shuttles. The shuttle could receive power from the international space station, but besides that, the shuttle wouldn't take any power from any satellites.
When has a space shuttle ever hit a satellite?
A space shuttle has never hit a satellite.
Is all satellite considered live satellite?
A "live satellite" is something that is being shown "live" from a satellite, such as images from space, or views of the Earth from a satellite in outer space. TV programs you watch on satellite is not considered "live satellite".
What is a nuclear battery and how is it used?
A nuclear powered battery, or more properly, a nuclear power supply is composed of a quantity of Plutonium (typically) which will generate heat for a very long time. This is the energy source. This is surrounded by a set of thermocouples which turn the heat into electricity. This is a pretty expensive way to make electricity, so it is a last resort method. Such as sending a probe deep into space, where solar cells, for example, would not work because of the lack of sunshine.
