Ms. Katz - Head Administrator](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/group-New_Horizons_Academy-1450269_9.gif) I received a notification this week that Mrs. Katz had a birthday. She is affiliated with The New Horizons Academy. If you are interested in taking a writing class, check out the Academy. NHA is a worthwhile venture. Curiosity sent me on a venture to research some information about satellites. As far back as the 1950's crude balloons were being used to bounce communications around the airways. I found out a lot about the Echo Star 17 or Jupiter 1. Launched in 2012 It was launched with two other satellites one was for weather watching. Information about the weather satellite led me to D=R*T which is the formula for the pulse radar (radio waves) that are bounced off weather fronts. (I hope that is right?) The information about the communications satellite Echo Star 17 was not quite as spectacular as the information about how meteorologists get the news they give the public about local weather. Have a good day.  |
