Orbital Communication

Orbital communication involves transmitting signals—such as data, voice, or video—between Earth and spacecraft or satellites that orbit our planet. These satellites are positioned in specific orbits to maintain consistent coverage over regions or for global connectivity. The signals travel as radio waves through space, with ground stations sending and receiving data to and from orbiting satellites. This technology enables GPS, satellite TV, weather monitoring, and internet services, effectively extending our communication capabilities beyond terrestrial limits. Despite the vast distances, sophisticated equipment and precise alignment ensure reliable, high-speed communication across orbit.
