3. WHAT IS A SATELLITE ?
• Satellite is an object that moves around a bigger object
• Satellites are used for a large number of purposes such as
observation satellites, communications satellites,
navigation satellites, weather satellites, and research satellites.
4. LAUNCH VEHICLE
• Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), Indian Space agency
founded in 1969 has launched several space systems[satellites].
• A satellite is sent into space on top of a rocket. When a satellite
is put into space, we say that it is “launched.
• The rocket that is used to launch a satellite is called a “launch
vehicle.”
5. LAUNCHING A SATELLITE
• Once the launch vehicle is out of the Earth's atmosphere, the
satellite separates from the upper stage.
• The satellite is then sent into a “transfer orbit” that sends the
satellite higher into space.
6. SATELLITE IN THE ORBIT
• Once the satellite reaches its desired orbital height, it unfurls
its solar panels and communication antennas, which had
been stored away during the flight.
• The satellite then takes its place in orbit with other satellites
and is ready to provide communications to the public
