How do Satellites give light to the planet?

If by Satellite, you are referring to the Moon. On a clear night the Moon reflects the Suns light back onto Earth. The best effect is during a Full Moon on a crystal clear night. Its not as good as daylight but you can see very well. If you mean man made Satellites, then they do not give light to planets they help us observe them or are used for telecommunications etc.
