No, nothing so exotic. Satellite communication is done with plain old radio, which
has been around for about 100 years now, and plain old microwave, which is about
70 years old.

Could gamma rays be blocked by the Earth's atmosphere?
Yes. Our atmosphere blocks cosmic and solar gamma rays.
Is gamma ray a visible light?
No, gamma rays are not visible to the human eye.
Are gamma rays blocked by the atmosphere?
yes
What has more energy ultraviolet rays or gamma rays?
On the elecromagnetic spectrum, gamma rays have much more energy
Is communicating with sattilites is an application of gamma rays?
No. Satellite communication is done with radio waves (and sometimes microwaves). Same stuff that communicates with your cell phone.
How do Satellites for observing X-rays and Gamma rays eg Chandra X-ray observatory work?
they use gamma rays... i think. top that peeps!
What studies gamma rays when it is in orbit?
As far as NASA satellites, both SWIFT and GLAST "study gamma rays", just in different ways

no gamma rays are the best
What is x rays and gamma rays?
Cathode rays generate x-rays and gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation. Gamma rays have very high penetration power.
What are gamma rays crest?
gamma rays are Vincent is weird
Why use satellites and earth orbiting observatories to study the universe at x ray or gamma ray wave lengths?
Those radiations hardly reach Earth's surface, because they are absorbed by the atmosphere.
What is x-ray and gamma rays?
Cathode rays generate x-rays and gamma rays are electromagnetic radiation. Gamma rays have very high penetration power.
