Can you see a satellite during the day?

Answer 1

From Earth, a satellite would look like a speck of light moving slowly across the sky. Different satellites orbit different distances from the Earth, so the size of the speck varies. In some artificial bodies, such as the International Space Station, it is sometimes possible to make out a few features.

Answer 2

If it's up at night, yes; sometimes it's too close to the Sun to be visible. You can see Saturn with the naked eye, no need for a telescope (though you will need at least a small telescope or a good pair of binoculars to see the rings). Saturn is brighter than most stars, so it's relatively easy to find as long as you've got a general idea of where to look. Even at its dimmest there are only about 20 stars that outshine it; at its brightest only Sirius and Canopus are brighter.

Answer 3

technically, yes.

The Moon is a satellite of Earth and it can sometimes be seen during the day. Also, during a solar eclipse it may be possible to see the international spacestation.

But on normal days, and when referring to man-made satellites, no, you won't be able to see them.

Answer 4

Yes, it is possible to see certain satellites during the day if they are reflecting enough sunlight. The best time to see them is usually around dawn or dusk when the sky is darker but the satellite is still illuminated.

Answer 5

There are a lot of satellites that can be seen with the naked eye. They look like a falling star or an airplane way up there and move across the sky fairly quickly.

Answer 6

On a dark cloud free night you lie on your back and look up.

Answer 7

The Hubble Space Telescope is a satellite that can see Pluto, but if you know where to look, you can see it with an ordinary telescope.
