What is repitivity and revisit of satellite orbit?
The repetitivity and revisit of satellite orbit refers to the time elapsed between observations of the same point on earth by a satellite. It usually depends with the target location, the orbit of the satellite and the swath of the sensor.
Why was satellite aryabhatta launched in space?
Aryabhata was India's first satellite, named after the great Indian astronomer of the same name. It was launched by the Soviet Union on 19 April 1975 from Kapustin Yar using a Cosmos-3M launch vehicle. Aryabhata was built by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) to conduct experiments related to astronomy. The satellite reentered the Earth's atmosphere on 11 February 1992.
What type of satellite is geostationary operational environment satellite how does it work?
a weather satellite and it rotates around the Earth at the same rate and in the same direction that Earth revolves so it is always fixed over the same location.
How did NASA find out that their was water on the moon?
On June 18th of 2009, NASA sent a probe in space called LCROSS (Lunar CRater Observation Sensing Satellite) to crash into the south region of the moon near the Cabeus crater. On the 9th of October of that same year, the space craft crashed into its target with dead aim precision. the LRO or Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, another probe sent at the same time as LCROSS took spectrometry data from the cloud of debris that was ejected from the surface of the moon seconds after LCROSS impacted the Earths natural satellite. Spectrometers look at gases and by looking at the rate of absorption of light, scientist can determine was molecules are in the substance being observed, since each molecule has its very own unique spectrum lines (the colors of the rainbow). for example if looking at mercury gas we would see blue green and orange lines of color where as in hydrogen gas we would see violet blue aqua and red. The data from the spectrometers show very clearly that the spectrum for water in present.
What does a satellite do when its in geostationary orbit?
it's hot. ;)
Is a satellite a space probe?
A space probe is not the same as a satellite, because they can orbit planets and sat elites don't.
Are space probes the same thing as satilight?
No they aren't the same. A satellite is on a defined orbit and a probe is something sent to discover planets or other space objects.
Is a probe and a satellite the same thing?
Yes, they are, but a probe can also be an asteroid or something like that as well.No. A satellite orbits an object. The moon is our natural satellite.A probe has a function, generally to land on the surface of an object and take samples (probe it).
How cold is a space probe to the sun?
If the space probe is approaching the sun and is always facing the sun, then the probe sun-ward side should be very warm; but overall the probe will be at the same or close to it's internal temperature (unless it doesn't have insulation; in which case it will be about 3 degrees Kelvin - which is the actual temperature of space.)
What in space exploration in the year 1974?
In the year 1974 NASA's Mariner 10 space probe flew by the planet Venus. Later in the year the same probe flew by the planet Mercury, the first flyby of the planet in human history.
If a space probe is in interstellar space how does it move?
The same way it moves everywhere else - by ejecting matter on one end, which pushes it in the opposite direction.
What is satellite orbital spacing?
orbital spacing is the satellite spacing between the satellites orbiting in same frequency band
Is the space station moving or stationary?
Its moving. Quickly. It is in orbit around the earth, the same as any satellite.
Difference between satellite radio and regular radio?
One of the main differences between satellite radio and FM radio is that there is a cost for satellite and FM is free. Satellite radio also does not operate using the same numerical AM and FM channels as FM radio.
How are satellites space shuttles and space probes used to explore space?
Satelites in space are used for examining the solar system.There are cameras in the satelites.The satelites can take pictures and we can observe what is in the solar system.Space probes are used for the same thing.Nasa puts space probes onto some planets and see what is on it. I Hope this helps :) no, a satellite is controlled from the earth to signal the satellite in space
Is void same as interstitial space?
Yes it is the same since the space between the crystal arrangements of a crstal arrangement is called interstitial space and the space between 2 or more atoms or ions is called a void.see it is the same
What is satellite write the difference between natural satellite and artificial satellite?
The difference is the same as in other contexts.* "Artificial" means that something was created by humans. * "Natural" means that it was NOT created by humans.
