Almost every satellite aside from communications satellites measures temperature. Weather satellites geostationary and polar orbiters measure infrared radiation and the temperature can be inferred when the emissivity of the radiation surface is known. While not always knowing this emissivity may seem to be a weakness it is actually use to determine characteristics of the radiation surface.
A common example of a use of measuring temperature is that of thunderstorm cloud tops. The storms with the coldest cloud tops are either the heaviest rain producers or may even be severe (large hail and damaging winds).

What is the example of process control system?
An example of a process control system is a thermostat used to regulate the temperature in a building. The thermostat measures the current temperature and adjusts the heating or cooling system to maintain the desired temperature set by the user.

Does thermometer measure heat or temperature?
Different thermometers make use of different physical properties, that change with temperature - for example, volume, electrical resistance, and others. The basic household thermometer simply has a liquid - previously mercury, nowadays usually colored alcohol - that expands when it is heated.
What similar between temperature and thermal energy?
In practical terms, temperature measures heat and heat measures the thermal energy of a system. In meteorological systems, for example, temperature, as an indirect measure of heat energy), reflects the level of sensible thermal energy of the atmosphere. Such measurements utilize thermometers and are expressed on a given temperature scale, usually Fahrenheit or Celsius. they are both related to heat.

Why can't a satellite fall?
Well, since earth is pulled up by a gravitational force the sattelite could do the same and basetly float. An example of this is a rocket. If it wasnt for fuel to help it push against the atmosphere and gravity outside earth it would be floating around. That's the opposite for a sattelite. if not satified ask again.
What is an example to adaptive bioengineering?
Artificial limbs.
