Other nations have built their own operational remote-sensing satellites. Canada's Radarsat, launched in 1995, forms its images by using radar instead of visible light. It thereby operates at night as well as in the daytime, while its radar beams pierce through clouds.

San Jose Tech Museum, Lockheed Martin, Satellites, Orbits, Build a Satellite ... Remote-sensing satellites, like the one shown on the left, study Earth's surface. From 300 miles (480 km) up, this satellite uses powerful cameras to scan the planet. The satellite then sends back valuable data about global environments.
