How does satellite photography work?

Satellites use the earth's orbit and the earth's gravity to take pictures. The satellites orbit the earth in the same direction that the earth spins. That way the satellites never have to move against the earth's movement to take pictures. There are two kinds of satellites; ones that take pictures that are designed for taking pictures, and ones that are designed for spying. The ones that are designed for spying can magnify what are seeing on earth. Otherwise, the two kinds of satellites work the same way.
