used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are

imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

"Learn about satellites that affect us every day, how they work,
and how we can place and keep them on orbit."
"Satellite Basics for Everyone" presents an introduction and
overview to satellites. It's written as clearly and understandably
as possible for a wide audience. It provides a learning tool for
grade school students. High school and college students can use it
for helping them decide on career fields. It's for people with
curious minds who want to know about satellites that affect their
daily lives. And, it provides a training tool and an overview for
people who build, operate, and use data collected by
satellites.
"Satellite Basics for Everyone" describes satellite missions,
orbits, population, closeness, debris, collision risk, builders,
owners, operators, launch vehicles, and costs. Focus then turns to
describing the orbit, components, environment, and operation of the
geostationary communications satellite because it affects our daily
lives the most by providing television, radio, commercial business,
Internet and telephone services. A description of satellite motion
prepares for the included Mission Planning Example of how to place
and keep this satellite on orbit and keep the antennas pointing in
the right direction to perform its mission.
"The main objective of this book is to stimulate a broad
interest in engineering and science."
