For example, Earth is a satellite because it orbits the sun. But usually, the word \u2018satellite\u2019 refers to a machine that is launched into space and moves around Earth. Thousands of artificial, or human-made, satellites orbit Earth. Some are used to track weather, some are used to take pictures of space, other planets and galaxies. These pictures help scientists better understand the solar system and universe. Some satellites are used for communications: beaming TV signals and phone calls around the world.
