because they are used!! dahhh!! lol ;)

remote sensing satellites develop highly detailed and accurate maps on earths surface.

Satellites are launched in east direction to use earths rotational velocity and to reduce launch energy.
Global Positioning System

Scientists use satellites to view Earth's surface because they provide a wide coverage area, allow for consistent monitoring over time, and have the ability to capture data in different wavelengths that are not easily accessible from the ground. This data is crucial for understanding Earth's processes, monitoring changes over time, and making informed decisions regarding environmental issues.
Orbiting satellites.
The network of satellites operated and maintained by the USA is the Global Positioning System (GPS). There are other systems, comprised of other constellations of satellites, and operated and maintained by other countries.
Earth observation satellites collect data about a strip of Earth's surface by taking high-resolution images and capturing various types of data such as vegetation health, land use, and weather patterns. These satellites orbit the Earth and use sensors to collect information about specific regions on the planet.

70% or 80% of water covers the earths surface
