A radar system sends out a wave. When part of this wave hits something, it bounces back to the radar receiver, the radar can then work out the size, location, and also the velocity of the object.

A stealth plane is specially made to scatter radar waves across its angular surface. The radar might not be able to detect it, or estimate that the object is far smaller than any military vehicle and therefore not sound any kind of alarm.

Can satellites detect stealth aircraft?

Satellites can detect stealth aircraft, but their effectiveness depends on various factors, including the aircraft's design and the satellite's sensor capabilities. Stealth technology reduces an aircraft's radar cross-section, making it less visible to traditional radar systems. However, satellites equipped with advanced sensors, such as infrared or synthetic aperture radar, may still detect the heat signature or other emissions from stealth aircraft. Ultimately, while challenging, detection is possible under certain conditions.
