There are many applications of satellites, so any answer is probably debateable, but I'd say communications and imaging.

This is how it is for my Toshiba satellite yours maybe the same or similar start/all programs / Toshiba / utilities / web camera application

One can view Earth from satellite images on Flash Earth, Symi Visitor, Google Earth, and Twisted Sifter. There is even an application called Satellite Live, which allows users to see real-time video of what is going on anytime, anywhere around Earth.

Using a technology (electrical generation, satellite transmission, etc.) is not a technology itself. It is an application of technology to provide a service.In the same way driving to woks by driving a car is not technology in itself, but that application of a technology to an end.
Yes, you can use several different PC applications to get realistic satellite Earth views of your choosing. Perhaps the best and most used of these applications is Earth Explorer.

Satellite comes via French satellite from Latin satelles 'attendant,escort', which itself probably went back to Etruscan satnal. Its use for a 'body orbiting a planet' is first recorded in English in 1665, and comes from the astronomer Johannes Kepler's application of Latin satelles to the moons of Jupiter.
