What happens to the laser light when it reaches the satellite in the ranging system?

When the laser light reaches the satellite in a ranging system, part of the light is reflected back towards the Earth. By measuring the time it takes for the light to travel to the satellite and back, the distance between the Earth station and the satellite can be calculated with high precision. This helps in monitoring the satellite's position and orbit.


Why must scientists carefully set the speed of a satellite orbiting earth?

If the final speed is not the exact speed required for a circular orbit, the satellite will travel in an ellipse around Earth; the time for one revolution, as well as the highest and lowest parts of the orbit, will be different from the expected values. This may, or may not, be relevant, depending on what the satellite is used for. For example, a satellite may be designed to pass over a certain part of Earth every 24 hours. If the orbit is wrong, the timing - as well as the part of Earth over which it moves - will be off.
