How does a satellite or a spacecraft take pictures from space and transmit that to earth?
That's interesting. But what about if there are clouds or other obstructions in the way? Can the images still be transmitted?
Unfortunately, if there are clouds or other obstructions in the way, the images may not be transmitted properly. This is why it's important for the satellites to be positioned in orbit where they have a clear view of the Earth's surface. Some imaging satellites are even equipped with radar sensors that can penetrate clouds and other obstructions to capture images of the ground below.
