A satellite is an object that is in orbit around an object in space of a larger size. Things such as the Earth's Moon or Pluto's Charon are natural satellites. Humans have also created artificial satellites—human-made machines and spacecraft in orbit around our Earth or other objects in our galaxy. These types of satellites have fundamentally changed humanity—such as connecting us with ...
C'est quoi un satellite ? GRANDES QUESTIONS C'est un objet qui tourne autour d'une planète. Il peut tourner autour de la Terre … ou d'une autre planète ! La Lune est le seul satellite naturel de notre planète Terre. Mais par exemple, Mars en possède 2 et Jupiter plus de 60 !
Learn about how a communications satellite works and how it helps us to connect to each other around the world.
Telstar, launched in 1962, was the first active communications satellite: it received microwave signals from ground stations and retransmitted them across vast distances back to Earth.
This satellite is the heart of a space-based communications system called Iridium. Conceived, designed, and built by Motorola, the Iridium system provides wireless, mobile communications through a network of 66 satellites in polar, low-Earth orbits. Inaugurated in November 1998, under the auspices of Iridium LLC, this complex space system allowed callers using hand-held mobile phones and ...
Sputnik, the world’s first human-made satellite of the Earth, was launched on , marking the beginning of the Space Age and the modern world in which we live today.
Quand nous regardons la Lune, elle nous présente toujours la même face. Grâce aux sondes lunaires, on a pu avoir des images de la face cachée de notre satellite naturel. Cette face est beaucoup plus cratérisée que celle visible depuis la Terre. C'est comme si la Lune nous avait protégé de la chute de nombreux astéroïdes et météorites qui, sans elle, auraient normalement percuté ...

From the ozone to underwater life, satellites help us understand our environment. In some cases, satellites enable us to take steps to protect it.
Launched in 1960, Echo 1 was designed to explore the new field of communications via space. Its design was remarkably simple: Essentially a large balloon, measuring 30 meters (100 feet) across, the satellite provided a reflective surface in space. Radio signals directed at Echo from one location on Earth "bounced" to another. By the time Echo 2 was launched in 1964, other types of ...
The bullet-shaped satellite payload, about 6.5 inches in diameter and 3 feet long, carried three micrometeorite detectors (a microphone, a wire grid, and metallic film), temperature sensors, and a special cosmic-ray chamber developed by Van Allen's graduate students at the University of Iowa to determine the intensity of high-energy charged ...
Most people know that satellites in orbit do useful things such as collect images of the Earth's surface. At the National Air and Space Museum I use satellite images in my job to understand changes in the Earth's land surface.
Military reconnaissance is an operation to obtain information relating to the activities, resources, or military forces of a foreign nation or armed group. It uses balloons, aviation, and space technology and has played an important role in our history.
In the tense years of the Cold War, applications satellites evolved down two separate paths: one devoted to national security needs, the other to civilian interests.
