Artificial Satellites
Artificial Satellites are objects launched from earth to orbit earth or other planets. Satellites are used for communication, remote sensing, weather forecasting, and other purposes. This category is for questions about satellites in general or specific satellites.

What is The Satellite kitchen?
A satellite kitchen, also known as a ghost kitchen or cloud kitchen, is a food preparation facility that operates without a traditional dine-in restaurant. It focuses primarily on preparing meals for delivery or takeout, often serving multiple brands or concepts from a single location. This model allows for lower overhead costs and greater flexibility in menu offerings, catering to the rise of food delivery services. Satellite kitchens have become increasingly popular in urban areas, responding to changing consumer preferences for convenience and variety.
Satellite link design involves the planning and optimization of communication paths between satellites and ground stations to ensure reliable data transmission. Key considerations include frequency selection, modulation schemes, link budget calculations, and antenna design. Factors such as atmospheric conditions, satellite orbit, and user requirements also play critical roles in determining the overall performance and capacity of the link. Effective design maximizes data throughput while minimizing latency and signal degradation.
Do all space satellites stay in the thermosphere?
No. That only applies to low Earth orbit. Geostationary satellites orbit beyond it.
Why does a satellite travel over different parts of the earth?
Because most satellites are not 'geostationary'. A geostationary satellite orbits the Earth at the same speed that the Earth spins on its axis - such as the GPS grid, or TV relay satellites. Most satellites travel faster or slower than the Earth spins.
In which other area have satellites most benefitted humans?
delivering signal waves throughout the world for the people to have the ability to communicate with others.
How does a rocket lift off the ground and what keeps a satellite in orbit?
A rocket can rise into the air because the gases it expels with a downward action force exert an equal but opposite reaction force on the rocket. Satellites in orbit around Earth continuously fall toward Earth, but because Earth is curved they travel around it.
It depends on their purpose - they can be as small as a football - or as large as a bus !
Data is sent to earth from satellites using what type of numbers?
Data is sent to earth from satellites using TIROS. This is data given from the ground.
What are the subsystems of a satellite?
There are many, it depends on the purpose of the satellite. You need to be more specific
What is satellite and can you see it?
That is a pretty simple question... Satellite is a space craft which recives information from towers like tv towers and radio tower. Obviously you cannot see it, it is on the exosphere and we are on the troposphere
Satellite imaging refers to the process of capturing images of the Earth's surface using satellite technology. These images are obtained through various sensors aboard satellites, which can detect different wavelengths of light, including visible, infrared, and radar. Satellite imaging is widely used for applications such as environmental monitoring, urban planning, agriculture, and disaster management, providing valuable data for analysis and decision-making. The resulting imagery can be processed and analyzed to reveal detailed information about land use, vegetation, and changes over time.
Why do we have a satellite in space?
Most of the satellites are for communication - such as tv/radio and mobile phones. There are also the satellites of the Global Positioning System and military satellites.
The mission that retrieved the malfunctioning Intelsat VI satellite for repairs and then launched it back into its correct orbit was STS-49, which was the maiden flight of the Space Shuttle Endeavour. The mission took place in May 1992 and involved a series of spacewalks to capture, repair, and re-deploy the satellite.
What was the name of the first American satellite launched in space?
It was called explorer 1 and was used for radio activity.
Does Sky viewing cards interchange with other satellite systems?
No they don't. Each one has there own special Sky viewing cards and won't work in others. You couldn't take one from Dish network and put it in a Direct TV and suspect it to work cause it wouldn't.
Is there 13000 satellites in space?
I think 13,000 seems quite a lot but I know there are quite a lot in space. 1 crashed into the Pacific the other day. I dont think earth needs 13,000 satellites, after all what do we need them all for? I expect NASA and other space companies have a lot up there and obviously TV channels and phone companies have them up there. I dont know exactly but it wouldnt suprise me if there was a lot of satelllites, 2,000 seems more likely.
