How do satellites work?


Conan, TX | Satelites
An satillite is a piece of large matter circulating and pulled by strong gravity. An artificial satillite is first built by extending a metal structure. Next, drill in holes for metal plates. buy or make a gamma ray detector, a sillicon chip (with anylized and programmed equiptment), and lots of wires. Of course you need more eguiptment, but the heat willburn it up. So keep minium amounts equiptment. Yes, a networking computer can be connected in acess with the satillite, but not literally connect it in 0g. Cassini is only about 12 feet tall and 6 feet wide. No, Doplar radar is Not a satillite. It is a ground based radar. If you need more resoures, check out Nova in PBS.com and search Satillites.
