What else can I help you with?
What are some of the jobs rockets have done in the past?
Rockets have sent unmanned spacecraft to mars and Jupiter. Satellites put in orbit by rockets beam back information about earth's atmosphere and weather.
How does the satallite work?
Satellites work by orbiting the Earth and receiving signals from ground stations, then transmitting those signals back to Earth. They are equipped with antennas and sensors to capture and relay information across vast distances. Satellites play a crucial role in communication, weather forecasting, navigation, and scientific research.
What does a satellite do in space?
A satellite can do many things. There are weather, communication, navigation, and scientific satellites. Mostly the names will help you. The weather satellites give info about the weather of earth at all times. The communication satellites help get you communicating with other people like over phone or radio and television. Navigation satellites help sailors and other vehicle drivers navigate thoughout where they are going. Scientific satellites basically find out sciency things about the earth like radiation.
What satellites travel pole to pole?
Satellites in polar orbits travel from the North Pole to the South Pole and back again with each orbit, providing global coverage. Some examples of satellites in polar orbit are the NOAA series of weather satellites, the Aqua and Terra Earth observation satellites, and the International Space Station.
How do satellites transfer information to television?
satellites must transmit all their information to the earth down .satellites transmit information gathered by their sensors during each contact with the ground station. They contact the station using a large dish antennae which is situated on earth, at the site of the ground station. During the contacts between the satellite and ground station the satellites usually transmit information about the state of its various subsystems abd its position in space.
How do satellites get the weather?
Satellites take pictures and accumulate other information into the computer. They analyze the data and send it back to weather stations on earth.
What gathers information and sends it back to earth?
A satellite is a device placed in orbit around Earth that gathers information, such as images or data, and transmits it back to Earth. Satellites are used for a wide range of purposes, including weather forecasting, communication, and mapping.

What are weather satellites?
Weather satellites are computers, cameras, and radios boosted into space and pointing back down at the Earth. The satellite takes photos of the cloud and weather formations on Earth and transmits them to ground stations, where they are made available to anybody who needs them; weather forecasters, farmers, scientists, and anyone else who has a desire to observe the Earth from 22,800 miles up. Before weather satellites, people were regularly surprised by the weather, which is especially dangerous if you live around the Caribbean Sea and the surprising weather turns out to be a hurricane.

How do satellites take pictures?
Satellites take pictures by using cameras and sensors to capture images of the Earth from space. These images are then transmitted back to Earth for analysis and use in various applications such as weather forecasting, mapping, and environmental monitoring.

What were satellites originally made for?
The first artificial satellite that had a particular purpose (other than just for scientific research) was the Echo satellite; a large mylar balloon placed in orbit to reflect radio signals back to the Earth. Now, satellites are used for all kinds of communications; TV, cell phones, overseas phone calls, internet and such; weather satellites that help to predict the weather and track storms, and reconnaissance satellites that take photos of the Earth. Oh; GPS satellites.

Some examples of satellites in polar orbit are the NOAA series of weather satellites, the Aqua and Terra Earth observation satellites, and the International Space Station.
How do satellites take pictures from space?
Satellites take pictures from space using cameras and sensors that capture images of the Earth's surface. These images are then transmitted back to Earth through radio signals for analysis and use in various applications such as weather forecasting, mapping, and surveillance.
What were Echo 1 and Telstar 1?
Communications satellites, launched in the 1960's. There were 2 Echo satellites, which were passive (the signal would bounce back to earth like a mirror). The Telstar satellites were active, meaning that the signal was retransmitted back to earth.
If your GPS system is stolen out of your tractor can it be relocated when it is turned back on?
Unfortunately, a GPS is a receiver only. It locates its position on the surface of the earth by determining its distance from a series of satellites. It does not transmit any information back to the satellites, which would be necessary for a satellite to locate the GPS.
