How can a satellite see through clouds?

Satellites can see through clouds using active microwave remote sensing technology. Microwaves can penetrate clouds, allowing satellites to observe Earth's surface even when it is obscured by clouds. By measuring the microwave signals that are reflected or emitted from the surface, satellites can create images and gather data despite cloud cover.


How can satellites see through clouds and smoke?

Satellites equipped with synthetic aperture radar (SAR) sensors can penetrate clouds and smoke by emitting their own microwave signals that can pass through these obstacles and reflect off of the Earth's surface. By analyzing the return signal, satellites can create images of the ground beneath the clouds or smoke. Additionally, satellites with thermal infrared sensors can detect temperature differences caused by fires or heat sources even through clouds or smoke.


How can satellites be used to monitor the hydrosphere?

They can see through clouds and work during the day and at night. They can also see changes in the soil, the vegetation, or snow, etc.


Can a telescope see through clouds to observe celestial objects?

Yes, telescopes can see through thin clouds to observe celestial objects, but thick clouds can obstruct the view.


What is the haze you can see through?

Cirrostratus Clouds


Why can you see clouds?

because of the clouds have feelings too don't they now.


How do satellites help identify clouds that are most likely to produce precipitation?

Satellites help identify clouds likely to produce precipitation by measuring cloud properties such as size, thickness, and temperature. These data can be analyzed to predict the potential for cloud development and precipitation. Advanced sensors on satellites can also detect specific characteristics of clouds associated with precipitation, such as ice crystal formation or cloud top temperatures.


Are there any clouds or storms on planet mars?

There are dust storms and clouds on Mars. Winds are generated through the heating of the martian atmosphere. There are no water clouds like we see on earth though.


Can satellites see through buildings?

Satellites cannot see through buildings in the traditional sense. However, some advanced satellites can use technology such as synthetic aperture radar (SAR) to detect changes in the ground surface that may indicate underground structures or tunnels. This technology is used primarily for geospatial mapping and monitoring, rather than seeing directly through buildings.


Are clouds opaque to light?

No, they are not. An opaque object lets no light through at all. Marble counter tops, pieces of plywood or wallboard, sheet metals are examples of things that are opaque. Clouds are translucent. You cannot see any detail through them, but you can see that light is passing through.


Do satellites show us the clouds over earth?

Yes, but it depends which satellite you're talking about.
