What do you call a man made object that orbits the earth and takes pictures of the weather?
A man-made object that orbits the Earth and takes pictures of the weather is called a weather satellite. These satellites are equipped with instruments and cameras that capture images and data to monitor and study weather patterns and conditions across the globe.
How does a man made satellite work?
A man-made satellite operates by orbiting the Earth or another celestial body, using its onboard systems to perform various functions such as communication, weather monitoring, or scientific research. It is equipped with solar panels for power, antennas for transmitting data, and sensors for collecting information. The satellite's position and orientation are controlled by onboard thrusters or gyroscopes, allowing it to maintain its intended orbit and orientation. Data collected is transmitted back to Earth for analysis and use.
Does a satellite circle the Earth or does Earth circle a satellite?
Technically, the Earth and any satellite both circle their mutual center of mass. Just like the balancing of an adult and a child on a see-saw, since the earth's mass is several times the mass of the satellite, their common center of mass is closer to the earth's center than it is to the satellite. Even in the case of the moon, the pair's common center of mass is inside the earth. In the case of any man-made artificial satellite, the mass ratio is several gazillion, and the common center of mass can't be more than a hair's breadth from the earth's center. So for any satellite, including the moon, it looks exactly as if the satellite is circling the earth.
Is there a satellite around earth and what is it called?
Yes. The earth has many man-made satellites orbiting the earth, but there's also one natural satellite. This satellite is the moon, orbiting earth at about 2288 miles per hour (3683 kilometers per hour)
Why moon is only the natural satellite of earth?
Because all other satellites orbiting the earth are man-made.
How are satellite pictures of earth and other planets made and transmitted?
Satellite pictures are taken through the satellite and sent to Earth via satellite waves.
How are satellite pictures of earth and of other planets made and transmitted?
Satellite pictures of Earth and other planets are captured by cameras or sensors onboard spacecraft and satellites in orbit. These images are then transmitted back to Earth using radio waves or other communication methods. Data is received by ground stations that can decode and process the information to create the images we see.
What is man made satellite?
a man made satellite is a satellite made by man, and sent into space to orbit around a planet, star, or other body in any solar system to gather information and pictures about it.

What is a satillite called when it orbits the earth?
The definition of a satellite be it man made or natural is, a body that orbits the parent. The earth is a satellite of the sun, the moon is a satellite of the earth ans so are all the man made ones we put in space.
Satellite of earth?
A satellite of earth that is not man made is the moon. There are many satellites that are man made that orbit the earth. These satellites are used for communication between Internet and television viewing.
The definition of the Earth's moon?
A satellite of Earth made of mostly rock
The moon orbiting earth is an example of a what satellite?
A moon is a natural satellite, as opposed to an artificial satellite, which is a man-made object in orbit.
What Would You Call A Made Up Moon?
A "Made Up Moon" would be a man made satellite. The real moon is a natural satellite of the earth. Man made satellites are created on earth to perform functions in orbit around the earth such as receiving signals from and sending signals to the earth. They allow us on earth to have GPS, satellite phones, space photos and the like.
Why is the moon called a natural satellite of the earth?
Because it is a satellite - it stays in orbit around Earth. And it is natural - meaning not made by humans.
How is the moon a natural satellite?
Its not man made anything that orbits another body is a satellite, so the earth is a natural satellite of the Sun
