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 universal force is primarily responsible for keeping satellites in orbit?
The universal force primarily responsible for keeping satellites in orbit is gravity.
How many miles above the Earth are satellites typically positioned?
Satellites are typically positioned around 22,236 miles above the Earth in a geostationary orbit.
Do satellites repel each other?
No, satellites do not repel each other. The gravitational force between satellites is attractive, which means they are actually drawn towards each other. This force helps maintain their orbits around a planet.
Why are there many satellites which move in different directions and speeds which will eventually crashwhy can't they move at the same speed and direction?
Satellites are placed into different orbits to serve various purposes like communication, weather monitoring, and scientific research. Each orbit has specific requirements, and therefore satellites need to move at different speeds and directions to fulfill their designated tasks. Collisions can occur due to the vast number of satellites in space and the complexities of orbital mechanics, making it impractical to have all satellites move at the same speed and direction.
How do you know the shape of the milky way if you are in it?
we send satellites out into space and take pictures with cameras on the satellites
How do satellites help people study space?
they take pictures of space :)
Do artificial satellites travel around the moon?
We have used artificial satellites in order to take pictures and study the moon and they did travel around it.
Where are they when they take those photos of the Moon and its huge?
Satellites from the sky can take pictures of the moon or going there with a rocket, landing on the moon and taking pictures directly there.
Why is it that Google can take a picture of your front door but the pictures of the moon from NASA are so poor?
Google satellites are closer to the Earth than the NASA satellites are to the moon. And those pictures are pretty good.
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.
How do astronauts take pictures?
We send satellites and space probes equipped with cameras into space. The satellites and probes can be sent commands via radio waves, and the equipment then sends back digital photographs via radio as well.
What measurements are made by weather satellites?
Satellites take satellite pictures of the cloud cover, I don't think any other measurements are taken by satellites. You can do a lot with weather satellites, like looking into hurricanes. Other tools are used to take measurements with to determine the path or strength of a hurricane.
How do satellites take pictures from space?

What is the difference between weather satellites from communications satellites?
Wheather satellites are used to take close pictures of the earth . Communication satellites are used for communication. Ex(in the old days if you sent a letter from Canada to Russia it would take 25 days. Now you write in MSN, it goes to the satellite and to the reciever.)
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.
Do weather satellites take pictures of cloud cover?
Yes, weather satellites take pictures of cloud cover using various sensors to monitor cloud patterns, movement, and density. These images help meteorologists analyze weather conditions and forecast future weather events.
