Satellites

If 3 or more satellites follow the same path around the earth it is called Trailing formation. Trailing formation could see the difference between the 1st satellite and the 2nd satellite, from the 1st time view and 2nd time view. There will be a possible change from the different satellite that is trailing the other satellite(s).

The other kind of formation is Cluster formation. Cluster formation is when the satellites are in different areas and viewing quite a bit of places at once. They are separated far enough apart to make a map. If there was only one satellite then that satellite will have to orbit the earth multiple times to make a world map. But the Cluster formation will make a couple orbits around the earth to make a world map. It is a lot faster to have a cluster formation of satellites than just one satellite to orbit the earth.



Satellite Constellations provide information such as the GPS. The GPS shows us where we are and show us the way we want to go. If we're lost the GPS will show us where we are and it'll show us the way out. For my cellphone, i use the cellphone towers to call far range calls, and for that the satellites are used. The satellites could use a spot beam to beam a call or text to another person at far range. The spot beam will like beam to another satellite and hit another cellphone tower to give the message or call. Satellites are all over the earth called Satellite constelations.
